Hi could I have a ppp
Does anyone else feel like they never see their children due to work? I’ve got 2 daughter’s aged 3 years and 6 months and I’m a single mum facing my first Christmas as a single mum also so I’ve probably over spent to compensate for the fact dad’s not here (as he hasnt seen them since june threw his own choice) and ensure they still have the best Christmas (not about money or presents I know and im not a materialistic person but it’s just the way I think). I work full time to try and provide the best life for my girls. However I am now feeling the guilt at the fact that I feel I hardly see them and work to purely pay bills and nursery fees. I’ve been feeling like this since I went back to work 6 weeks ago after cutting my mat leave short due to finances but I think it hit me more last week when my mum found my baby’s first tooth whilst I was at work. I couldn’t help but think that should have been me an I even cried that night. I’ve been thinking about giving up work so i can spend more time with them and watch them grow, make memories ECT but then can’t see how I would cope finantially as everything is down to me (their dad has no input at all doesn’t pay maintenance or even acknowledge that he has children). I really don’t know what to do for the best any advice would be appreciated but please no judging as I already feel like a faliure as a mum as it is. Thanks. X

  • I work 3 evenings during the week and one 15hr shift on a sunday. I feel like i barely see any my kids but especially my 4 yr old as she is at school.
    I am due another baby in June and ill be going back 2 long days only so even though i dont see them on those days at all, i will see them 5 days a week.

  • We all have different circumstances children grow up all different ways of course u will feel guilty but ur providing them with a roof over there head food in there tummy and showing them the right ways just make sure ur days off and holidays r spent making special memories as that’s what makes it worth while
