Don't feel like I'm doing very well

You can. But you need rest and to build yourself back up. How old are your children?

And hugs to you!

They're tired from the long term
They need fresh air , they're like dogs at that age , football in the park all afternoon & then a Christmas movie so you can have a bit of piece
Good luck

I'm just on my way home from work but I know how you feel . I packed mine off to holiday club yesterday and Tuesday because they would not behave or let me catch up with chores. They refused to do anything even for pocket money.

I feel that everyone gets the lovely side of my kids and I just get the destructive and argumentative side.

Hope you're having a better day PinkPixie x

Yes, me too. Did you manage to get them out today?

I just tell myself to keep breathing, the rest will follow.....

They know you are a constant their lives, unlike their dad, hence safe to play up. A very back handed compliment but it means you're doing well xx

No advice really but I wouldn't be afraid to park them by the tv when needed! Don't forget kids often play up most with those they feel safest and most secure with
