Hi,
I've been wrestling with Hed since my twins started playgroup. They've now just started Y1 and I'm freaking out. I spent 2hours doing homework last Sunday and I feel like they come home from school and by the time we've done reading / writing / spellings, they're exhausted, it's bed time and I haven't spent any time with my lovely boys. I've also got a 3rd son, aged 3 who's getting ignored in this time. My reasons for not Hed really were 1) confidence in my abilities 2) Not wanting to be their "teacher" and lose being their mother 3) Time 4) My MiL's disapproval!
I would really like to know from others what the reality of a day/week looks like? Do you have more time with your kids or do you get sick of them?! how do you get all other things done e.g. washing /cooking etc? Do I just need a complete mind shift?!
In all honesty I would love to send them to school, but as it is, I just see them being pushed more and more but equally don't want to put them at a disadvantage in life. See my doubts?!
