Its March Break here in my home for a week. Six kids running around the house, fighting and yelling at one another. The feelings as a mom its very stressful, emotionally draining. Its hard being a mom and a house wife while the husband is out working all day. Usually kids listen to their father more than their mother. I find they walk all over me. Have any of my readers find they have this issue? What are your solutions or any ideas that may help us moms at home with childeren.
I find it hard also when your being lipped by your 11 year old daughter. It drives me crazy. If I acted that way when I was that age I would’ve had my butt smacked so hard I couldn’t sit for years, but this day an age I find kids from this generation are very rude, ignorant, disrespectful, and very lazy. I know that some will say that its from the upbringing of the parents, but at the same time punishing your child is quite different now then back in the 70’s.
I find that timeouts and taking things they love the most away don’t work. They still act the same, treat you the same. Wouldn’t it be nice if when you first got pregnant they handed you a “How to be the perfect parent” If you think about it, it would make this parenting life a little easier.
Don’t get me wrong I love my childeren, but at times it would be nice to pause life for a bit and do what you wanted to do, and what you wanted to eat, go anywhere you wanted to go. its frustrating when you open a pop and its gone in seconds. But thats the story of my life. and it continues……..
