I find it hard to parent when I’m tired
I can’t do it. But I must
The truth is you can do it and you do do it. But telling yourself you can’t creates resentment and frustration.
How about you tell yourself the truth. I don’t want to do it but I definitely CAN do it.
Do I have to? Well that is debeatiiable I thin I have to but the truth is I don’t .
When you tell yourself what’s actually true then you feel empowered by your choice. You are making a choice. Just like going to the gym. Don’t want to but I can do it. And I’m proud of myself for doing it.
Creates respect for yourself and there’s no resentment there’s a goal a focus, a reason why you are doing it. Even if you are tired.
I am more at peace with myself. I feel more in control of my life. And I feel like I can do anything if I can parent when I’m tired. I’m a good mom.
HOW can I take care of mYSELF AND my kids at the same time when I’m tired ? Now that is a very useful question.
