[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old are your kids? I felt this way until they hit about 6 and then I really started to enjoy them. Just depends on the state. The infant, toddler & preschool years were a BEAR (I have twins). I am so much more relaxed now that they are older and really enjoy them. Early parenting is very physically and mentally taxing.[/quote] Also, I did not enjoying playing with my kids. I'm glad they played with each other. When they wanted to play with me, I would do 5 minutes, then re-direct. Also, try to outsource some of the stuff that is driving you nuts. If you don't like playing, get neighborhood teen to come over for a couple hours a week and play with them. Or do a meal service. Or whatever it is making you crazy, outsource as much of it as possible. [/quote]
