[Blindtlk] How do I explain?

[Justin Williams]

Not  your friend's business as to how you are managing your family, but, you could slow down, and assess what your friend is saying and maybe find ways to improve.  You've just gone from mom to working mom; so after 13 years, taking a year to adjust is normal.  You have more on your plate.  As per an earlier suggestion, invite said persons to help you with transportatiohn, or even othe tasks.  You've got more money, so you might be able to pay people to assist you.

Mary, first of all, if you are doing your best, that is all you can do. Unless the opinion of those folks is important to you, don't worry about it. If it is, then see what ideas they have. You don't have to use any of them, after all. Invite them to help you with transportation, and those other things. If they just want to tell you what you're doing wrong, ignore them.

Howdy friends,

I’m a working mom for the first time in 13 years. For the past year I’ve been working full-time. It’s been so difficult to manage and arrange after-school care, transportation to and from work every day, along with all the other responsibilities I still have as a mom like making sure my kids are doing their homework, attending their church activities, eating, sleeping and that I’m involved and supportive. So much has changed. I used to be the Vice President of my children’s PTO and HOA. Now I feel like I’m barely hanging on sometimes. My heart is breaking and I’m so torn at times of what to do. I was accused of micromanaging my family by a friend that honestly has no clue what I go through. Any suggestions, recommendations on how to explain that it just takes more work to make arrangements for my kids and myself. How do I explain?

Thank y’all so much,
Mari Hunziker
