I agree with Iris. Often time I ignore my own needs for the sake of the children which is normal for parents, I beleive. However, every once in a while we need time for ourself. To relect and to relax. Time to get lost in ourself. Maybe that is something you should do for yourself.

I am sorry you having such problems with the children. I know how tough that can be. How about a book that could help your youngest so that they will know that the feelings they are having is normal. Just a thought. I am wishing you peace and serenity.
