My children see their father for half the school holidays and during term time 5 nights out of 14.
They get spoilt rotten, get taken out every single day and get bought anything they ask for.
I'm grateful that they have a father who cares. The problem I have is how the kids speak about me when they are home.
I get told I'm boring because we don't go out everyday. I can't afford to! I am told regularly that dad is better than me. That they love him more.
Every day they ask how many days until dads. My breakfast is never good enough. Dad cooks better than me apparently. He is more fun.
I just feel like a shit mother. I suffer from depression and this is making it worse.
Even on holiday when we did loads every day and I spent a fortune, it still wasn't good enough.
Very fed up today. Please be gentle..
