AM i a horrible mother/wife and unreasonable, or does anyone else ever feel like this? DS1 is v bright, fecking argumentative and v demanding. From early morning it's "muum...", wanting me to look at something, watch his bowling technique, play a game, etc etc etc. Plus he argues non stop about everything, and has to be asked several times to do everything. DH often isn't here much at the weekend, busy doing sport. When he is here, he helps (a bit, with prompting) and is good with the kids, but constantly asks me things like "how do you spell...", "I want to run something past you"," have you ironed my hockey trousers," "are you coming up to put the kids to bed" etc etc." I collapse with wine in front of Corrie and get "who's that? What's going on?" or better still, "what happened in the Bill" at 10.30pm Wed nights. Blardy Nora.
After a very long Sunday I am feeling knackered and want to tell them both to bugger off and leave me alone! There is also a DS aged 2, who is the easiest of the lot! AIBU or anyone else ever feel swamped?
