We all know that the real tragedy is the deaths, long term illness, job losses, increase in DV, decrease in MH so I'm not ignoring that but what are the little things that you feel warrant a little pity party?
DS has named every day about not wanting to go to school because there are no activities (help yr1!!) When asked he says there's no bouncing allowed, only hopping. Typical 5 yo conversation eh, bit it's really making him sad. I've tried explaining he's allowed to bounce...
Turns out binding involves holding his 121s hands and jumping up and down, which he can't do because of Corona virus.
I think even though he knows about it, he's internalised it as rejection and that she doesn't want to do it anymore which obv makes him sad.
I might have had a little cry.
First world problems I know but it's such a big thing for him at 5 and is really got me down.
So pity party guests very welcome to have a moan about the little crap everyone else dismisses
