Mothers need breaks too
All mothers require a break from their maternal duties from time to time, but many don’t take the break they need due to suffering pangs of guilt about not spending enough time with their children, reports the Telegraph.
However, it’s important that mothers get some time to themselves, without worrying about making their children’s dinner or picking them up from school, but it’s something very few achieve. Lorraine Thomas, chief executive of the Parent Coaching Academy says: “Working mums particularly feel guilty about spending time on their own. They feel that when they’re not at work they should be with the children.”
It doesn’t need to be a week long spa break in an exotic location, an afternoon at the cinema can do the trick, and everyone can benefit from it – you, the children, and your partner.
