Summary

This quote humorously highlights the irony parents face. It suggests that by the time parents become proficient in raising children, their own children have become independent and moved on in life. The term "unemployed" here can be understood as a metaphor, implying that parents are no longer needed in the same way as when their children were younger. Overall, the quote reflects on the transient nature of parenthood, where the very skills and wisdom gained are no longer as relevant when they finally accumulate.
