Haha "imprisoned" and "tortured"? Not even close and if you think so then you are out of touch with reality.

You should teach the kid how to wipe its own butt and entertain itself with toys or books or activities while you work but you think the only "realistic" path is to hover over them all day long...OK. Teaching independence is not absentee parenting, creating dependence is not the goal of parenting. This is why millennials can't get off their parents' tit!

I see you are resigned to this path, with no other possibilities.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
