I've cared for a whole generation of children now, and I know it meant something, I can see it in the grown people they became. But I'm at the end of it with no retirement saved, a worn-out back, and knees that ache every morning. A life of good work, and almost nothing set aside to rest on.
More people experience this than they realize.
A lifetime of meaningful care has left you with a worn body and no retirement to rest on.
