[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry OP. You have a lot going on. I don't know if it's bad parenting but I'm pretty open with my kids when there's a lot going on. Even just right now, I ended up in the hospital with pneumonia this week, and when I got back, I just told them "Hey, I'm not my best self right now. I'm not feeling well and I'm really tired. I'm going to need you to X,Y,Z to help out a bit until I'm better." My DH can handle everything while I'm down & out, but I think kids can and should learn to step up when needed.[/quote]
