[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, you should feel a bit guilty. Your child is in school all day. You can play for a little bit after school and then tell the child you want some you time so give you an hour alone. I thought you were talking about a preschooler. Your child is old enough where you can say go play by yourself. [/quote] My issue isn't the weeknights, between when I get off work and pick him up and dinner and homework and such, this is not much of an issue on the weekdays, I give him my attention from 6-8:30 then I have alone time. [b]It's more of an issue on the weekends. He's up at 7 at the latest. Sometimes he plays alone, but then wakes me up and anticipates my full attention for the whole day. [/b][/quote] BECAUSE HE ONLY SEES YOU FOR 2 HOURS A DAY DURING THE WEEK. It is what it is, OP. He misses you. He needs you. You probably only have a couple more MONTHS of this. Be the mom. Be there. Or, cut back on your hours and be present during the week. [/quote]
