[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know everyone is stressed, but it is so difficult being a single mom right now of a preschooler. I am supposed to do everything — telework, take care of DS, cook, etc! This morning I slept in. Managers tell us that we can work after hours at home, but working at night and getting up early is burning me out. Any other single moms out there who are in the same boat?[/quote] Single mom here but my child is older now but have lots of coworkers whose kids are young. Try not to worry if you have conference calls and your kids makes noise or talks - people are being really understanding these days try and alternate 20 mins between playing by themselves and then you playing / interacting with them for 20 minutes Quiet time - after lunch for 90 minutes - just turn something on the screen and when all else fails just let them watch tv - you have to work and this won't go on forever and your kid won't suffer damage [/quote]
