You are crazy 🤪 I’m looking forward to school schedule. It’s good for all of us.

Yes. I kept my kids home this summer for the 1st time and really enjoyed hanging out and going out with them. I'm not looking forward for school to start. I want the summer to be longer

Same. I love being home with my kids. I know it's hard and I know what it's like to dread it, I used to. But as I grew as a mother, I started to be able to really enjoy them even though it's chaos. It's really chaos though, I have 5 and my oldest is 6 so it's really hard work, but I love it so much

I also feel this way every year, but I also know that school is good for them.

I felt this way after Covid. Was such a special time having all of them home with no distractions.

I have felt like this at times, but now I'm Banging head Twisted Evil Not listening
I have a screaming newborn & a dc who takes more out of me then all other kids combined.

I'm eating a big slice of humble pie right now.

I’m looking forward to the winter to see them more! My kids are in day camp, outside at the playground, at the pool for hours on end, late night activities every second day… I hardly see them all summer! (I’m in the bungalow colony). Looking forward to the cozy winter school nights where everyone is together after 5pm.

The older we get and more life experience we have, the more humble pie we eat, isn't that so?

Nope. Living in Israel my kids are home before 2, so I get to spend lots of time with them during the year….

100% especially as I have a kid in camp but also the big boys come home a lot later than 5🤷🏽‍♀️.
