[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, can you at least let one kid watch TV while you give the other kid some 1:1 attention? Less guilt that way and it may help with behavior and attention-seeking. Mr. Rogers episodes are in YouTube as is Sesame Street. The new show Bluey is great. And there is Magic School Bus. So many great, thoughtfully created shows. It's nothing to feel bad about when you're in a tight spot. 5 is right on the cusp of reading and playing Legos independently. A year from now you may be enduring a 3.5 year old, but your older child will be far more self-entertaining. It will get easier soon.[/quote] I agree with scheduling “dates” for 1:1 time while you have dh monitor another kid who is occupied with sleep/tv/toddler gym class. I know that makes me feel like a much saner mom and my 4yo raves about our ‘you and me’ time. I’m sorry op I hope your husband recovers. [/quote]
