If there is already a thread on this please let me know where i can find it. Thanx.
With all this pc business of listening to children, respecting their feelings and ensuring all is done to keep their self esteem riding high, I sometimes feel that my kids end up ruling the roost. I have 1dd aged 10 and 1ds aged 4 and bouncing between their different issues and age appropriate ways of dealing with things leaves me feeling out of control and overwhelmed. I try so hard to be the adult and respond in a mature way but often am left feeling bullied. I feel there are respect issues towards myself and the house. Think being 43 doesnt help. Also look after 1 child before and after school who is very sweet but very high maintenance. Not really sure what i am asking for here but had a c*p week and feeling so low. Maybe i just need a holiday!!!!
