[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes. I tried to get my kid into our aftercare program, but there was a waitlist. So now I have to get creative. It doesn't mean I suck at my job (luckily I own the firm) or that my kid gets ignored; she just doesn't get my full attention and has to also be creative. It's just life. Didn't the sanctimommy trend die out during covid? Do your thing folks![/quote] And how beholden to intensive parenting dogma does one have to be to think working to provide for your kids and expecting them to entertain themselves is neglecting them or just cheap? We expect working parents to parent like they don’t have a job and work like they don’t have a child. It’s impossible. And when people call it out, the shame brigade rushes into action. [/quote]
