Good morning people,
Waking up early, preparing breakfast, bathing the children , ensuring they eat quickly and off to school. That's my usual morning routine and it's no different today.
How do we as parents cope with our children? I know its not easy. But then, cope, we must.
Some families have some form of help, live in nannies or those helps who come in the morning and leave at the close of the days work, there are also those who come in to work for a number of days in the week. These assistance eases the stress of house chores, errands and some energy and time sapping duties.
But in cases where there are no helps, how do the parents cope? Some families have both parents pitching in and helping out. The father helping children with home work while the mother makes dinner and similar things.
There was a time I used to sweep and tidy my home at night when my children are sleeping. In the morning when they are off to school, I run all errands that need attention and then I get back home, make lunch and dinner before they close from school. Its not easy but then, what works for me right?
So tell me, what works for you as a parent?
For the working mother/father, how do you work around things?
