Motherhood is not a straight path for anyone. The tumultuous road ahead can leave one looking 15 years older than they are. Children are narcissistic by nature, you put all your time and care into someone who doesn't even appreciate you! The eternal blight of a mother's struggles. If you're looking for recognition for your efforts, parenting may not be for you. 


Things become extra difficult when your kids are home all day every day during summer break. I can that coworkers in my office are also playing "bring your kid to work day." What is one to do with their children now that they're just free all day? If only kids were more responsible, that they could have months of vacation and manage to not find themselves 6 feet under or in a ditch somewhere. Anyway, the point of all this is to celebrate that its back to school soon! No more breaking of plates in the middle of the day or taking your kid to work with you. Now they get to go back to their scholastic prison and be out of your way.
