Book?

Just pick up a newspaper.
Read that and then tell me you still want to bring kids into this world.

I enjoyed Portraits of Childfree Wealth - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2023/03/book-review-portraits-of-childfree-wealth-jay-zigmont/

The book is free and has a fairly realistic look at the (American) childfree experience.

Any book on how to raise difficult children will do...
