I like to think that monster childrearing goes like animal childrearing: in that mostly what happens is that they birth 'em, suckle 'em for a few days, then send them scampering off into the long grass to fight tooth and claw against nature and never see them again.

I even tried to write a story once about how a husbando comes home from work (well, "work") expecting to be greeted by his arachne wife and new daughters, only to find the just wife, who sort of shrugs and goes "Well I guess they just wandered off somewhere what did you expect, spiders don't raise their young". And she's completely confused why he's getting hysterically upset that their daughters are probably off getting killed by rattlesnakes somewhere. "Heyyy~, if you like kids so much, I know how we can make some new ones ;) "
