ughhh

i need to get a break too! Does that mean i am a bad mother or love my kids any less....i think not, we all deserve a little me time women and men both. So why is that some men think that just cuz we r the mothers we cant have a single moment of sanity...like a hot bubble bath, a night out for coffee with a friend, 1/2 an hour to exercise? i guess its just plain culture and that they see us as the care giver because we carried the child and some provide the child with the food....geesh, i mean we r parents for a reason, like a team..when one gets tired the other takes over....this way the parenting feels like a journey together instead of a one sided job. But maybe fo us women who have this type of situation, we are only making it worse...men need to help and be considerate of the things we do as a mom........it truly is a real job...we arent asking them to do all that we do, just lend a supportive hand and know that we get tired too. Maybe we need to show them this instead of ruining our bodies, mental state and moods........its time to get creative and think of ways to encourage these men to repect us and have moe of a relationship with the kids....here's hoping!!!!(:(:(:
