Does anyone else find it SO difficult to do anything with their kids?
I’ll preface by saying that we do have pretty well behaved children. So it’s not them. It’s probably me.
Going to the park Going to the store Going to the zoo Going to the beach Going camping Going for a bike ride Going for a picnic All normal things to do as a family. All things families do ALL THE TIME. And for some reason we just really struggle to do these things without my husband and I getting completely over stimulated and frustrated (mostly at each other).
I don’t really know what I’m trying to get out of this? I usually breathe a huge sigh of relief when I see comments in solidarity. But sometimes I wonder if there’s something I could do better.
Any tips to reduce stress and constant frustration on outings?
Currently typing this at the beach while trying to contain my tears of complete overwhelm.
