Parents coping with children starting school

MY DAUGHTER IS EXPERIENCING ANXIETY/DEPRESSION SINCE HER DAUGHTER STARTED KINDERGARTEN. HER INCOME IS NEEDED SO SHE HAS TO WORK. SHE FEELS SHE IS MISSING EVERYTHING WITH HER TWO CHILDREN BECAUSE SHE CANNOT BE A STAY AT HOME MOM. SHE CRIES EVERYDAY AND FEELS LIKE SHE IS NOT A GOOD MOM BECAUSE SHE IS GONE AT WORK.

this does not say that shes not a good mom or anything.her income is needed so she has to work to provide for herself and her kids.my mom has to work and most of the time she is at work and she wish that she could stay home and be a mom,but she knows that i need to go to school,i need clothing and food,also i need comfort.so she has to work. no worries your daughter will fine some time for her kids when the time is right just stick around and help her.things will get better.

seems that your daughter really loves those young ones. it will do her more harm than good though to stress out. she can not have an effective relationship if she is depressed. needs a clear head to make good decisions, because they are sure to be needed. once in kindergarten most times the children love the activities, food and interaction and they are glad to get home when that time comes as well. i would pray them out the door, trust God to keep them while i am away from them, and love them when they return from school. choose a quality time, maybe day off to do something special that doesnt cost a lot to be with them. they will remember and appreciate it. a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do! will be praying for her.
