Lone Parenting Full Time Mum

Full Time Mum

As a full time mum I never ever wanted to leave my children and go out to work, but times are hard now and work is the only answer to support my children.

Anyway I divide the summer holidays amongst the family, The first two weeks with the children are mine, their father who also is at work full time has the second two weeks with the children and the last fortnight is shared with the grandparents who each take a week from work to look after the children.

My only regret is that the children must feel passed from pillar to post because me as a parent that has to work in a full time job and juggle the holidays in this fashion, but what other options do we have nowadays without passing them on to strangers in day care units?

Every mum wishes that she could be at home with her children, but working puts meals on the table and full time work means more enjoyment from life with little luxories.
