Keep in mind that raising kids in the US is much more difficult and stressful here than where you are in Europe. Terrible schools, violence, unaffordable child care, very expensive health insurance, the list goes on and on.

People love to bitch about their lives though. Doesn't mean they actually dislike what's going on. Like, I bitch about my job all the time. Truth is I love my new job and I just need to vent my frustrations about the difficulty.
