10 photos that show that living with a small child requires a lot of patience

Having a child is truly one of the most infinite joys one can experience, and most parents know this very well; having one, or more than one to raise is like having a second job; very tiring, but extremely satisfying. Yet, life with a small child is not easy at all, and sometimes you have to arm yourself with a lot of patience and try to make the best of a bad situation and to try not to yell at them. It is not an easy task, yet without our little ones life would be so much more boring!

When your child absolutely does not want to get up from the floor and continues to cry undeterred ... very trying!
