"Quick run to avoid dinner with kids" - would you post this on social media?

Saw someone (with 80,000+ IG followers) post this this evening. Pretty shocked. I know all parents need a break at times, but to phrase it like this on social media just seems wrong on so many levels.

Heaven forbid a precious 7 yo feel like their not constantly the sole attention and love of their adoring parents

If my child saw that and asked me I'd tell them. Sometimes you're a nightmare and I need to get away from you.

My 4 year old wouldn't have an issue with this. It's okay for children to understand that their parents need a break sometimes.....I really don't see an issue.

If I wasn't a single parent I would happily miss dinner to do something for myself. Exercise instead of exercise in futility trying to feed the f^%ckers*? Yes please.

I don't think they would be offended. And if they were, when they had kids themselves they would understand.

Massively messed up the bold there oops

And?! What's wrong with that. I've gone for runs to get out of bedtime faffing about.
