Am I a bad mother?
| Mon, 04-19-2004 - 3:00pm |
I just started this group a few days ago but so much of what I've seen is sahm's that love being at home. I feel like a terrible mother because somedays I just feel like I've been put through the wringer and that I cannot possibly do this another day. Don't get me wrong, somedays I have ALOT of fun with the kids. But, well, today for instance, my 11 month old has been whining and crying and stuck to me like glue and my 4 year old has not been helping matters with her back talk and that sort of thing. I feel like I need to SCREAM!!!! Am I a horrible sahm?

As much as I enjoy staying home with my children and being able to watch them grow and be here for them when they need me, does not mean that everyday second of the day is fun and happy
Take care.

My dh can't comprehend why the house is a mess, why dinner isn't always cooked, why why why, he even said to me the other night "Leave it to Beaver's" mom could do it! OMG!! I said, dear, that is TV, AND her kids were in school!!
Anyway, it's really nice to know I am not alone in being burnt out, stressed out and just plain tired of being a SAHM sometimes. I too, search the want ads once a week, but bringing home $300 a month after paying daycare is just not worth it to me....well most of the time it isn't! There are definitely days where I would be happy to pay them to keep my son!!
