I've been a single mother now for over 2 years after my fiance passed away. I have 2 sisters and a brother and get almost zero help. I'm really struggling at the minute in the school holidays as I've had no break except one day for 3hours. They are very energetic kids and are only 5 and 2 I need to constantly see to them. I've just had an earful from my sister saying that since I had 3 hours break 2 weeks ago they're not going to babysit anytime soon as it's not fair to take up all their time and that I chose to have children. Of course I did but no one choses to have children alone! I'm very upset about this as I hardly ever ask. Didn't ask for months before those 3 hours but they're acting like I ask all the time. Sorry I'm not really asking for advice but just wanted to rant a bit about it. I've been told that once they have kids apparently it will be the same for them but there's 2 of them so will not be the same situation at all!! I'm just so tired of dealing with everything on my own and in this heat they've really been little monsters!!
