[quote=Anonymous]And this is why SAHMs with kids at home full time should NOT be called lazy/moochers. Parenting young kids all day is not easy, and if you want to do it “right” by teaching them to not just drop their towel for a parent to pick up and not whine to get what they want and not be on the iPad all the time—well it’s 10x’s harder. Dear op, try to go easy on yourself. Things definitely don’t have to be perfect or fun for them all the time. I agree with a pp who suggested mandatory quiet time. Also you can put some fun music on twice a day for everyone to tidy up. At least it won’t be all on you. You can say “once it’s tidy it’s popsicle time!” To make it more fun. Good luck![/quote]
