[quote=Anonymous]I’d talk to a therapist and find things you enjoy doing that your kids will like as well. You don’t have to do a lot but show interest in them by doing something small together. My mom worked all the time and rarely had time to do anything with us (single mom), but she would occasionally read out loud to us books she enjoyed that were also age appropriate (like Narnia). Maybe for you, it’s hiking, or exploring music or something. She would also take each of us once to a theater production (it’s all she could afford). We each chose which production we wanted to see and when we were about 12, she’d take us to see it. These small things mattered. They will also become more independent and fun as they grow older. My mom never really liked parenting either but she’s my best friend today and we are really close (took after college to get to this place as I became more of an adult). [/quote]
