Help! My kids rule my life!

[iwanttobeonleave]

I love my children and I am unbelievably grateful to have them.

But the chaos and work!!!

How do you get to the point where they don't completely run your life, when chaos doesn't follow me everywhere, where I'm constantly exhausted and frazzled.

I just can't seem to get everything under control!

To add context, they're 6&8, boy and girl, I have a demanding career and so does husband. I have a cleaner but we've had Covid so I've been homeschooling/WFH/ going mental....

Hi

You haven't gone into much detail. On the whole are they well behaved kids?

If they are misbehaving to as why you don't feel in control don't be afraid to put your foot and make them clean up after themselves etc.

Kids need discipline or they will not learn. You can always treat them when they are good.

As from doing everything at home at the same time I feel for you.

My mum always let my brother run her and now he will speak to her like rubbish when he wants do not let it get to this point and stand your ground.
