I'm exhausted. I have 2DC, 2.3y and 13m, they need constant entertainment, and/or a lot of screen time. I also now have my DH to consider as he's WFH. We can't go out or do anything and spend our days inside all driving each other crazy. Our one walk in the park for daily exercise is the ONLY thing I have to look forward to and now I'm panicking the government will order all the parks to close soon and I'll have nothing to get me through this.

I feel like I'm losing my mind. Anyone else?!

I have a 3.5 year old and an 8 month old. I'm completely exhausted. My 3.5 year old went to nursery 3 full days before this started. I've seen people saying about being organised and planning and some days that works but most days I cannot coerce my 3.5 year old to do what I've planned. He wants to do what he wants to do. I've also got a big issue with him not playing independently. I've read so much about how to encourage this and he won't. He either keeps pestering me whilst I'm doing whatever it is I need to or he lies on the floor and does nothing. I'm very frustrated. He has great imagination and is more than capable of independent play but doesn't want to. Either way, another very tired mum here!
