[quote=Anonymous][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] aww so sorry you were in the hospital! Glad you are back and hope you feel better. ds1 has adhd and a sprinkle of asd so he is very emotional and not always the best with expressing empathy or being flex. ds2 is more controlled but still only just 8. but yes to all.[/quote]
