[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aw, OP, that's tough. I'm sorry. I think in re: to your daughter, I wouldn't try to fix it for her. Just acknowledge and accept her feelings and don't try to change them. Just tell her how you miss her too, and that you love her. And for you too, you don't need to fix how you feel. It's okay to be ambivalent about this stuff. [/quote] Thank you! This helps so much. Also same with the SAHM poster above who said her child says similar things- I was a SAHM for my older son for the first 3 years (and for this daughter for her first 18 months), and remember my son saying similar things even though I was with him everyday. Also I was not happy and am a much better mom with the balance of work which I love. Anyway- so good to have all these reminders and remember that kids have huge feelings they are trying to process and that’s ok. Phew! [/quote]
