We’re a single child family my daughter just turned 3. I’m taking her away to the seaside for a week without mummy, as my wife has been primary carer over the last few years and needs a break.
Although I work hard, I do spend a lot of time with my little one and we have a great relationship, but I’m getting apprehensive as even still, Mummy still is the “go to” for any pain (aka boo boo’s) grumpy tiredness, and just general gripes and groans.
I really try, and I have lots of patience, so I try to let her have her space when she doesn’t want me, but when there’s no alternative, there’s no getting past that, so is there any advice from other parents that have had the same experience? And ideas for how I can handle these few days?
