good for you if you are coping, honestly that’s great, a lot of people aren’t, people with kids who really struggle,people with multiple kids and not enough time or energy to help them, or people who really just don’t know to teach them.I don't get the whole drama around school work. It's not that difficult. Yes, kids moan and parents aren't teachers, but you give them a break with a snack every so often or a 15min walk to clear their heads and get stuck back into it again. I have 2 kids (7 and 9)and I look after my 2 nephews 1 day a week. My sister and I have the same routine. I also work from home 3 days a week and granted, I don't have a very stressful job or have zoom calls or meetings often, but I still have a lot of work to do, whilst schooling my children. Somedays are harder than others, but in all honesty I'd rather my kids do work and be kept up with their work than fall behind. I think everyone is milking the mental health card these days. If you are positive with your kids, then it helps.
But doing no work at all, is just ridiculous! Step up and get on with it and quit moaning!
I was not meaning genuine people who have struggles, worries, mental health worries etc... I am meaning, people are using their kids mental health as an excuse not to do any work. They are using that their kids' mental health is more important than schooling and therefore not bothering to do anything with them, leaving them to sit on gaming consoles all day because they get too worked up and too stressed doing home schooling. My kids get worked up and upset, of course they do, so we have a break, they run about outside if they can, they chill for a bit, they have a snack...we don't just give up because it's too hard. I show them they need to keep trying because if we give up when things get tough we'll get nowhere in life.good for you if you are coping, honestly that’s great, a lot of people aren’t, people with kids who really struggle,people with multiple kids and not enough time or energy to help them, or people who really just don’t know to teach them.
my kids are set tasks every day, they have one 30
Min online chat a day which means I am the one helping them with everything!
I also have the added stress of not knowing when I’m going to next get paid (self employed hairdresser!) how my bills are going to get paid etc
I have struggled with anxiety and depression on and off since I was 16 and have had it well managed for years, it’s now back, it’s hard enough to drag myself out of bed to do the basics right now (but I have children so I have to!) I’m not entitled to a bubble so I’m mostly on my own!
do not tell people that they are Using the mental health card as an excuse, it’s a very real problem for a lot of people!
Wow what an ignorant comment to make about mental health. I suggest you educate yourself on the true affects of mental health issues and all the different diagnosis.I don't get the whole drama around school work. It's not that difficult.

How many spelling mistakes in that story? She’s just so damn relatableThat looks shit, so cheap.
She’s forced to do it because she has crafting books to sell. I bet she’s told what to do and AS IF she’s going to have any of this homemade tatty shite at her weddingSoo the wardrobes were a much nicer colour before.. but apparently everything needs to be white now. The ‘times’ look crap and I bet even worse up close.
I also don’t get why she does these little glam areas etc because that’s usually for girls/women who take loads of pride in their appearance and love make up and glamming up etc.. but she literally wears the same eyelashes for a week, doesn’t look like she washes and needs a good full body wax.
WTF, I thought they were those poundland tiles, she's been ripped off.Oh my godddd is she on glue?! Those ratchet stick on tiles cost her over £600?!
No, it was £79 for 10 sheets & she used 8. Still don't look worth it, especially as she said they break easily.Oh my godddd is she on glue?! Those ratchet stick on tiles cost her over £600?!
Oh whoops, I read that as £79 for 1 sheetNo, it was £79 for 10 sheets & she used 8. Still don't look worth it, especially as she said they break easily.
