[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you keep your older child home and hire a mother's helper for the week?  [/quote]

Are you serious? Am I the only parent who finds it exhausting to watch a crawling infant and a rambunctious toddler at the same time? My daughter has frequent tantrums and I an constantly disciplining her. She is definitely strongwilled and in her terrible two phase. It is so hard to nap her without spending a good chunk of time with her in her room. The infant takes very short naps so I end up raking him in while I try to nap the other one. Suffice it to say I am exhausted by the end of the day. I have to get up several times during the night for the infant.

I consider myself a good mom and energetic with reasonable expectations, but some kids are harder to watch than others. I am amazed at mothers who can watch several  kids and keep their cool.[/quote]

Not the poster you quoted, but isn't that the point of what she was saying? Get someone to come over and HELP?? So, you're saying it's not only nearly impossible to watch "several" of your own kids, but ridiculous to watch a mess of young kids-- with someone helping? WTF are you talking about?[/quote]
