a lil tip, a lil Suggestion for anyone who plans to have kids or who already has tiny kids....
if you have a choice, maybe don't live in a location where the only thing surrounding you for miles and miles is just more houses :/
like, either live somewhere where there's easy access to nature/outdoor recreation, or live somewhere where there's easy access to a wide variety of activities - museums, sports, concert venues, rec centers, music lessons, dance lessons, blah blah.
maybe don't live somewhere where it will be a huge inconvenience for you to take your kid out to do/see things that interest them on a regular basis.
it is so fucking depressing to be a kid and to almost never get to do or see anything you think is neat because it's Too Far for your parents to feel like taking you there.
honestly like. it's a big enough deal that i legit feel like parents should absolutely be willing to completely relocate if it means living somewhere where their kid can do what makes them happy.
like, if you live in fuckinnn florida and your kid wants to be a rock climber, you better pack your shit up and move to colorado or whereverthefuck. if you live in kansas and your kid wants to surf, move to california, goddammit.
i mean obviouslyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy it's not always possible to live anywhere but where you're currently living for a myriad of reasons, but if it is possible, even if it's not easy, please please please don't doom your kid to a childhood of longing and unfulfillment just because you live in the wrong place omg.
#lmao not meeeeeee processing my jealousy of kids whose parents packed up their whole lives and moved hundreds or thousands of miles away#just so they could have opportunities to pursue their interests#parents who move their whole families to los angeles bc their kid wants to be an actor#parents who move their whole families to some snowy ass mountain town so their kid can be a winter sports athlete#im so jelly :(#if only my fam had moved to fuckin australia so i could wrestle crocodiles lmaooooo#parents who drive their kids 2 hours to participate in the highest quality programs for their interests#instead of settling for the rinky dink opportunities that are closer to home#like#if your kid wants to be a classical musician but there are not high quality teachers in your area#you almost may as well just not sign them up for lessons if you're not willing to travel to a good teacher!#bc your kid straight up will not be successful if they don't get high quality training!#literally go big or go home omfg
