[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's rude to say you need a break in front of the kid. Everyone needs quiet down time. Or just explain that you need a break from chores. Kids can know that adults need breaks from caregiving.[/quote] Why didn't OP discuss the gameplan for the weekend on Friday night? Why is she several hours behind with a work assignment and now it "has to" be finished at home on the weekend? If OP addressed these issues directly, it might turn out she is very disorganized and wastes a lot of time during the week at work when she should be getting her work done.[/quote] Many white collar professionals have to work on the weekend because deadlines occur at obnoxious times. It's a reality of many jobs in law and consulting and has nothing to do with failing to finish work during the week -- sometimes projects come up on Friday afternoon and you have to finish them before a meeting or presentation early the next week. I know this might sound foreign to someone who's probably punching a clock at the Jack in the Box 25 hours a week, but that's how a lot of grownup jobs work, buddy.[/quote]
