As a parent who is homeschooling this year, I keep thinking I should probably teach my children things this week—but then I remember that the TV is teaching them things because they’re literally watching HISTORY.
@writesloud @lillydancyger Yes to this. AND I am privileged to give up some teaching/ writing gigs but like you said, the constant parenting. I’m unraveling. Yet There are moments every single day where my kids pull me through it. Yesterday I lost it, cried, then my son (8) just hugged me. 😭
Daughter on Mother’s Day: “Mom, can you do this, this, this, and everything for me? Mom, Mom, Mom?”
Daughter on Father’s Day: “Oh, Dad. You don’t have to do that for me. It’s Father’s Day. Just relax.”
