When is it my turn..?

[Shakeygiraffe]

My three year old has just finished a tantrum that lasted nearly an hour. I’ve spent most of my weekend caring, cleaning and working. I wonder when it’s my turn to scream until I get what I want..?

I just wondered if anyone else was feeling close to tears from wanting little space, but for whatever reason not being able to.

The little inside me is dying to come out. I always had to suppress it, it was a part of myself I struggled to accept. I endured a lot of bullying and emotional abuse during my childhood so I have a difficult time expressing myself. I am working on trying to fix that. I been single and lonely all my life and I don't want to live like this anymore.

No time like the present.  Even as your toddler throws a tantrum you can too.  It will probably startle them out of there tantrum.

I have two kids ages 6 and 7. I have a very grown up career in healthcare. I always put my kids first. Job first. But on that same token I always always make sure I have some time at night to have little space or middle space time. Or when they are away to a friends house is a good time to get some you time in. It’s all about balance though. Parenting is hard enough as it is. Just like in a vanilla relationship. A couple has to work about the kids and work to get a little fun in right? Same with little space. Or any bdsm play time. Good luck!

 

Ps they don’t stay little long. Enjoy it. Even those tantrums when you are pushed to tears yourself you will look back on.

I have a 3 year old too. When he' having a rough day, my little space takes a back seat until after he's finally gone to bed, and then i de stress by throwing myself fully into my little space. onesies, dodi, stuffy, the works. 

 

Some days, its ridiculously hard to not join him in his meltdowns out of frustration, but at the end of the day, im a parent first and foremost. But i totally hear you and feel for you. It would be nice for somebody to just come in and say "go take a nap, and i'll deal with this", but until miracles are a thing, we just have to deal >.< Hugs for you though, it won't always be like this <3
