Looking for a little advice…
After spending the entire day with just one kid, I’ve realized how drained I am. I never thought I would say this, but being a Mom is so isolating, and incredibly exhausting. I feel like it’s been coming for a while, but I am seriously considering sending the kids to the small Waldorf school nearby. I’m reaching a breaking point.
[name_f]My[/name_f] kids are lovely, and this has nothing to do with them in the slightest, I just know that I need a break and it’s better that I do so sooner rather than later for all of our health.
Honestly, I wanted to do this (or send them to day care 2-3 days a week) a couple months ago, but I was worried for the backlash that might come with it.
Anyways, I feel slightly guilty.
I think I’ll talk to DH about this tomorrow after we drop [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] off to hang out with her grandparents (the other littles are already there). I know he knows it’s been coming and I know he’ll be supportive, but I’m still a bit worried.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] I send them to the Waldorf school, or do I just toughen it out?
