Hi
DD is 2.6 yrs and although i work part time had have done so since she was 3 mths, she is quite clingy at the moment (she has also gone to nursey for the past 14 months. When we are at home i find it very difficult tp just sit and play with her. I am ashamed to say this because it seems like such a simple thing to do but i keep thinking of all the other jobs I could be doing and after a few mins I end up saying things like "mummy's just gonna put the washing out and then i'll come back to play".
My problem is that when i need to get jobs done, DD wont play by herself. She'll turn tv on and just sit and watch it. I am ashamed to say that I have allowed this to continue as i know i will get some time to get things done. I need to get us both out of this habit, get some ideas for playing together and also get her to play on her own.
Am i expecting too much of her?
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated XX
