F*** off. This is difficult for everyone. [/quote]

NP here.  It is super easy for me. My teens are doing great and I am doing great. DL is working out fine.  My kids don't have attitude because I have devoted a lot of time in raising them and have not outsourced their care to others.   Only today I was thinking that except for the loss of meeting people in a social setting, the pandemic has turned out to be pretty good. We are able to effectively quarantine ourselves, eat good food, stay in comfort in our home and get along with each other.

I agree with others who have mentioned that the "pseudo"-parents who never spent time with their children are now finding them tedious. [/quote]

Okay, OP here. I take offense to this. I have not outsourced anything. I’ve worked from home from almost five years, mommy tracking myself so I was home for the teen years. Yesterday was a hard day. I’m a good mom, my husband is involved, life goes on. Still I’m ready for them to get out of the house more, and back to a routine. That’s does make me a bad, uninvolved parent, or them bad teens. We just have bad days and need to get back to giving each other more space and kindness.[/quote]

Read what you have written in your original post and the tone of your thread heading.  No one thinks that being in a pandemic is good for anyone. Yet, many people, especially those who have not been impacted by the disease or economy or any environmental disasters or the civil unrest, are making do and being grateful.  You on the other hand seem to be a hot mess.

Now you are claiming that everything at home is hunky dory and you were just venting?  I don't think so.  Try and be a better mom and a better wife.  Pandemic is hard on everyone. You cannot change what is out of your control but you can absolutely impact the vibe in your own home. Control your behavior and have compassion for what the teens are going through.  Make your home a source of comfort and solace to them by changing your response to stress.  In other words, Grow the F up![/quote]

Omg you are insufferable. You've actually left me speechless.

Some people are just humorless. Part of venting in this fashion is hyperbole, exaggeration, etc. and not every word should be taken literally, which most people know. I think the PP might be socially awkward or on the spectrum.

And I think many of the posters who like to flame people for being bad parents are just MGTOW/red pill types who spend all their time online lamenting that women aren't maternal and subservient enough.[/quote]
