[quote=Anonymous]No, you're just tired. Let them help you around the house. Have them try to fold baskets of laundry together (it will take a long time), get them a bunch of Legos, have them set the dinner table, involve them in making dinner ("I need two green peppers from the refrigerator, can you find them?"). Busy hands are happy hands for adults AND kids. My kids are teens and I was a SAHM when they were young. We didn't face a pandemic, but I spent 16-hour days with them on my own. If all else fails, time them running upstairs one at a time until they're both exhausted while you sit pretending to count and drinking a glass of wine. That worked for me.[/quote]
