[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would address it by asking for a scheduled time to sit down and talk with no interruptions. I would 1) Ask her how she thinks maternity leave is going for Larla and Larlo (older kids by name) 2) Point out that it is really common for maternity leave to throw everyone’s routine out of whack and say that you want to work with her to establish a new routine together. 3) Talk about a routine for mornings that you think might work 4) Ask her if she’d like to formalize eating lunch with the kids 5) Add that you have one little favor to ask. “Working with kids all day, I find I really crave quiet and a mental break. I am much more patient when I have 20 minutes to eat lunch without distractions, so I am going to bring headphones and use a white noise app while I eat. Please don’t be offended if I don’t respond and if there’s anything important wr need to discuss, just text me and I will find you right after my break.”[/quote] This is great wording. Thank you so much.[/quote]
