Yep, having a child has turned me into an over-emotional wimp.
Interesting that it applies to blokes too. I wondered if it was just some kind of hormonal breastfeeding/no-sleep thing. So I guess I'm stuck being terribly sensitive even once I stop breastfeeding and actually get sleep (if that ever happens). Arse.

I still feel terribly cynical and unsympathetic about anyone over the age of 18, though.
