How does she propose to help me? I have to rely on a childcare bubble with my mum. I have no choice but to leave my house to go to work, full time, every day. As does my husband. My mum can only do so much with regards to educating him and frankly, I’m appreciative that she even tries to teach him. I can’t work from home and I can’t afford a new laptop that my sons school requested I get for him yesterday as is old knackered one won’t support Microsoft teams properly. Yesterday, I took a phone call at work from school moaning at me for not uploading my sons schoolwork in time. I am drowning in work, I am drowning in guilt and I am drowning in anxiety and quite frankly I wish she would shut the duck up moaning about being afforded the privilege of being able to be at home with her children. I’d love that opportunity but alas the bills still need paying and I am grateful to have a good job.
