What is the thing you miss most from your child free life?

[Thepinklady77]

Just asking this for a bit of fun and also I suppose off loading. Whilst I would not swap my children for the world the one big thing I miss is when sick you can just take to your bed for as long as you need. Not having to pull yourself up and muddle through pain and tiredness with children who become very dysregulated when someone is sick. Thankfully I am rarely sick but when I am it seems to take forever to recover now as I don’t get the rest I need!!

What things do others miss?

Sorry to put a downer on this thread but I really miss that I can’t argue back properly to my often horrible husband because I don’t want to upset children 😤

Definitely miss staying in bed past 7am on weekends! No matter what time my two toddlers go to bed, they always awake up between 6 and 7am.

I also miss being able to get to work early, rather than having to do the school run each morning and being one of the last ones to arrive to the office. However, I wouldn’t change it if I could as I love taking my kids to school and want them to remember it when they grow older.
