I have so many issues around parenting that it leaves me to feel like a horrible parent on most days. I don’t beat my kids or call them names but I am a single mother and I find myself feeling resentful at being a mother on most days. The logical side of my brain says “They are just kids” but the other side says: WTF? this is NOT joyous at ALL!!!!
I was adopted as a child and I know this has had a huge impact on my life/parenting, even though I was reunited with my birthmother 2 years ago. How do i find a way to stop hating being a parent. I resent their fathers , I resent them. I hate my life as a parent most of the time and I feel guilty for feeling this way!! I look back on the circumstances of their conception and think “what was I thinking???” I have 2 daughters and I love them I just don’t know if I have what it takes anymore. The older I get the more I hate parenting..I need help. Does/has anyone ever felt this way?? I feel alone.
The advice has been good and on point. I think I need to speak with someone as I have alot of anger towards their fathers. I feel alone in handling the tasks of running a household and I feel like I give give give but don’t have a way to replenish the energy.
