Where are you all?

I am in Leicestershire, and have 2 boys aged 6 and 3.

I thought about this last night, and really think that some of the 'end of tether' situations could be made a little less scary if we knew there was someone near by who understands.

I've been on my own since DD was 6 weeks, so I'm used to it, I've never known any different as a parent.
