Please tell me what those words mean... While reading another blog today (adding link here when I find it again) I found myself really feeling for the mother writing. Summary - she feels guilty sometimes about doing things she never thought she would with her kids like giving them chicken nuggets because she doesn't have it in her to make dinner or working and missing out on many things with the little ones. I agree I feel guilty about many things ...not breast feeding as long as I wanted to ...having to go back to work before baby was even 6 months ...every little bump that I think I could have prevented ...letting him see a tv screen before 2... The list goes on.
Does any of this mean that I am not a good mom? No. Moms, Dads and most people in general can be overly critical of ourselves at times. We do the best we can with what we have and that's all anyone can ask for.
As long as you are doing your best you can do with what you have to work with for your child then you are doing a good job - end of story.
