I have 3 children. 1 currently lives with her dad out of province and the other 2 live with me. My oldest child i do not call nearly enough. I just forget. But how do i try and make a 10yr old that mommy forgets about her??
And the other 2 I just feel like i don't give them enough attention. Im not sure if its because of the fact that i wasn't played with as a child or if it's the bp? I feel so bad!! everytime i try and play with them i can't keep my focus long enough on the things they are playing. Will the fact that i don't play enough with them hurt them? Please give me some advice as i know my kids deserve better than what they r getting... ![]()

I don't feel like I give my child enough one on one attention either. Lately I've been trying to keep them involved in different playgroups and stuff cause I know play is important. I'm hoping it doesn't affect him too much, me not being able to deal with playing with him sometimes, but I honestly don't know. I've seen children survive and even thrive in horrible conditions. I just hope my child can be resilient enough. Sorry I don't really have much to offer.

I don't know how old are you younger kids? you may be able to do foam sticker projects with them. While they work on there's you work on one for your oldest. The phone isn't the only way to communicate. Get a bunch of post cards put them in your night stand(or suitable place your at for down time) and a pen. Pre stamp & address them to make it easier whenever you remember write a little note and send it. Get pre-paid flat rate boxes and when you see something she'd like that you would get for her if she was with you pick it up and when the box is full send it.
just sitting w. kids while they play and talking about what they like is enough for them. Bed time story and family dinner are very important in my family. Best of luck.
