Pretend you went shopping for a new car one day and found the model you liked, no loved, but decided not to go into debt for it and instead, pretend you saved for nine months.
At the start of the tenth month, pretend you went and bought it - your dream car!
Now pretend twelve weeks later, I (a stranger you hadn’t even ate lunch with) asked if I could drive your new car for a few hours every day, promising to take good care of it and returning it to you before you got off of work.  Would you let me do it or would you think I was crazy for asking?
Now pretend that car is your child.

Your children would rather have your time than your second income
