The mother kangaroo felt trapped by her offspring. Sure they were good kids, but even with that many good kids a mother will burn out. Every day it was a teeth gritting countdown to 6:00 when the father kangaroo would get home. Although he was old school and would sit in his chair reading the evening paper and drinking a gin and tonic, at least she knew that for a precious 14 hours she wouldn't be the only adult in the house.
