Let me say at the start that I love having days with my family. I know, in turn, we are cherished by kids and grandkids alike. :D
I'd hoped that in our 60s, we could look forward to retirement and unplanned days with no ties.
Instead, we find ourselves repeating early married life eg pushing a pram, standing at school gates in the rain, dealing with toddler tantrums, etc.
Current climate means both parents work and grandparents do childcare from babyhood through to the end of secondary school.
AIBU to expect time for me?
AIBU?
AIBU to expect time to ourselves
