Aghhhh sick of children!!!

[thegreenlight]

I’m currently at home on my own with my 2 young children as husband is away with work. I’m a full time year 1 teacher to a very needy (attention wise) class. I seem to constantly have a child in my face demanding something or wanting me to listen to them at home and at work. It’s like I can’t escape! It’s probably because it’s nearly Easter and everyone concerned needs a break, but fuck me I want to find somewhere to hide and stay there! I love my job, I love my class, I love my own children, but aggggghhhh!!!!

Absolutely not unreasonable! I was dreading 2 weeks with my 2. Then the sickness bug hit the week before so it's now 3 weeks with the first one locked indoors!! They are lovely but I've had enough and it's only technically day 1.

I feel like a right ogre because my two and my class really are quite lovely but I’m sick of hearing about auntie’s brother’s uncle’s birthdays and the new cat they’re getting in 3 years and all the random shit 5 and 6 year olds come out with! I might shut myself in a room and have a good swear!

Don’t beat yourself up. You can enjoy your job and your kids but you’d be a saint straight out of heaven if you could care about every pointless bit of information they desperately need to impart to you! Fortunately I’m going slightly deaf so a lot of it just sounds like white noise to me now.😁
