[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if I can get any helpful feedback by posting this, but I've noticed an ongoing scenario now that I'm home most days with my 7, 4 and 2 year old children for the summer that has me questioning what I can do differently or why this occurs so consistently to me. Basically, I've noticed that whenever I'm out visiting friends and having family play dates with my children, my kids are super clingy and talkative and bug me incessantly when I am talking to the other adults. Typically, the other children are off playing and trying to engage my children while my 7 and 4 year old hang around me and try to sit on my lap and hold my hand and tell me about video games and such (my 7 year old). What gives? I spend a lot of time with them, both as a group and individually, and give them my undivided attention frequently throughout the day. Why can't they just leave me alone for the 30-60 minutes a day when we may be socializing with another family?

Same scenario applies when I am on a phone call.

I am off work for the summer and feeling frustrated and lonely because my children are acting this way. [/quote]
