I have a lot of friends and family my age who are parents now so I tried my hand at making a parent background, which seems just as worthy a background as sailor or noble. Take a look and let me know what you think.

I honestly didn't have high expectations for that, but I actually loved it. Persuasion and gaming set proficiency were nice touches.

 

I wonder if this would work better as a parallel background to another one, since most backgrounds describe your "job" and parenting can coexist with whatever you do for a living. Backgrounds generally can't be leveraged for mechanical advantage, anyway. Having too many bonds and flaws and stuff for the DM to track might be an issue?
