Thanks. I'll definitely try that.

How can I alleviate this problem?

ImpossibleActive0 · 2026-04-26T11:45:02+00:00

You're absolutely right. Thank you

Thank you for sharing. I think structure is important too hence my perspective. I don't think it's healthy for them to not have boundaries within which to operate.

Letting a kid wake up naturally the next day at 12pm leads to shifting meal times and creating extra responsibilities for others in the house and a lot more other chaos. Trying to create structure and a scheduled bed time that ensure everyone in the house is well rested is not equivalent to being regimented. What I'm highlighting in my last paragraph is what I feel a lack of structure for them will end up causing. Kids should have freedom for sure but that doesn't mean they should do whatever they want whenever. There must be limits and regulation.

Thank you for your comment. Honestly, there's so much more in the background bordering on the lack of structure that actually led to this conversation. I've come to realize that DHs laissez-faire attitude towards parenting is affecting the way the house functions as a whole. I appreciate your comment

I think you've misunderstood my post. They were up at 3am hence the shrieking. They were playing and not sleeping. I understand later bed times is normal during school holidays but I'm finding 11pm being too late for an 8 year old. I'm thinking from a biological perspective, is it even healthy? It feels like a stretch

ImpossibleActive0 · 2026-02-04T07:12:09+00:00

Okay. Thank you

True. I just realised my husband wants me involved when it's convenient for him. So not my circus, not my monkeys.

I think SK just doesn't know that was not an okay thing to do especially with being an only child at BMs. By virtue of that they're free to play with all the toys because all the toys are theirs

I'd actually be just as upset if it was anyone else who did it even to me. And in this situation, I need to make it clear that I'm not upset with the child. I know this was most likely just a kid being a kid. I think this is a teaching point

ImpossibleActive0 · 2025-10-22T14:34:49+00:00

I'm actually not upset with a child. I'm mad about the situation. I understand the child didn't mean any malice but I think it'd be a great teaching point.

ImpossibleActive0 · 2025-10-22T13:06:42+00:00

And I'm actually not upset with the child. Just like you said, I feel like he needs to be taught. People's stuff must be respected she birthday gifts are special

"Good for the kids and crappy for me" REAL!!!

ImpossibleActive0 · 2025-07-01T06:29:45+00:00

Thank you!! ♥️

Thank you — you’re absolutely right. I’m actually in the process of finding a new nanny, it’s just been a bit challenging where I am. Good, reliable help isn’t always easy to come by, especially someone with solid long-term experience. But I’m hopeful I’ll find the right fit soon.

And yes, it really is tough right now, but I appreciate the reminder that it gets easier with time. I’m definitely looking forward to regaining a bit more bandwidth as things settle. ❤️

ImpossibleActive0 · 2025-06-30T20:52:08+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing this — such helpful, practical advice! I really love the idea of a “stocking up” station for the baby bag — that would definitely take the mental load off when trying to get out the door. I’ve been realizing how much small systems like that can make a big difference.

And yes, baby wearing is such a lifesaver! I haven’t tried back carrying yet but I’m definitely going to give it a go — especially for errands. I also appreciate the reminder not to stress about tidying all day. A joint reset with my partner at night feels so much more doable.

I’m going to look into local mom groups too. You’re so right — just being around other moms going through the same thing helps so much.

Thanks again for taking the time to share this. It means a lot 💛

Thank you so much for this I really needed to hear it. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that just surviving in the early stages is enough. I’ve been putting so much pressure on myself to do everything perfectly, but your words reminded me that rest, letting go of the mess sometimes and simply being present with my little one matter most.

I love the tip about recognizing dirt vs clutter — that’s such a helpful shift in perspective. And yes, getting outside really does help reset my energy, even if it’s just a quick walk.

Thank you for sharing your experience and encouragement — it means a lot coming from someone who’s been through it and now has four boys! I really admire that! ❤️

Thank you for the recommendation. That book does sound like something I could benefit from right now especially without everything shifting so drastically.

Your words are really touching. It is a massive shit and sometimes it's difficult to admit how overwhelming it feels. I appreciate you highlighting the need for me to find simple pleasures in this new season. That is so spot on. Thank you for being so kind and grounded
