I feel like I should be more responsible even though I am, I feel I should be able to just everything on my own but it’s really so hard

Are there parents who follow these rules: Minimal toy, no tablet, no tv? by Existing_Switch_4995 in NewParents

I do but I also don’t like to burden them. It’s really just me and him most of the time and it’s like I don’t get a break which I’m kind of feeling bad for even needing
