[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not reading all the comments, so you may have addressed this. While they should not be making rude comments, have you shown them any empathy for how busy they are? I am sure running your household is not all that stimulating, but is it really that hard? Even with both my husband and I having demanding jobs and running our household, I would still say my teenage son has far more pressure on him than we have. And far less free time. And my kid is not is nearly as many activities as some kids. I suggest correcting the rudeness, but you also may - if you are not already - show some empathy. Being a teen is not easy. The pressure to constantly get good grades, be in activities, and stay on top socially, is a lot. It is ok to admit your kids are busier than you. [/quote] Maybe it is a good thing that OP is less busy than the teens are. If everyone is maximally busy, then no one has time to make space for others and to be present and be there when they need a little extra support.[/quote]
