[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people out there hate that you love your family life, OP. You're doing the right thing here. As someone who spent years volunteering in the schools, I have seen first hand what happens when parents largely check out of raising their own kids. When they're too busy with themselves to make time. We need more of you, not fewer of you. Keep doing what you're doing, OP. Your kids need you. Believe it or not, they will need you even more when they are teenagers and the stress of school comes crashing down on their shoulders, big time. When the grades actually start to matter. Be attentive, be tuned in to them, and never feel badly about it. Ever.[/quote]

I disagree. If OP was just saying she enjoys her family life, that would be great. But she's not, she is saying that her physical health is suffering. She doesn't exercise and in her own words, the way she spends her time now is taking a "physical toll." That doesn't sound healthy--doesn't sound good for her or for her family, does it?[/quote]
