[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry that you are exhausted with your schedule. I’ve only had one job that was less than 50 hours per week, and I’ve worked 24/7 twice. In my experience, there are people that thrive in that type of role, while there are families who make it possible. On the other hand, I average 55-65 hours in my current position, and I’m also currently exhausted. Prior to this position, I would have said that you need to find a family with less hours, but seeing for myself the difference that the kids and parents make, maybe you can ride it out, but if not, you need to find a family who makes the longer hours easier. There’s zero reason for a 2.5 year old to entertained at every moment. Can you start doing quiet individual play time for the older child during one of the baby’s naps? In a babyproofed bedroom or playroom, you should be able to take 15-30 minutes to breathe and relax.[/quote]
