Hi @crookshanks I do hear what your saying! But as a parent things can be very difficult- usually because of sleep deprivation. So when you wrote "bored" or "hollow" I identified with them and saw - exhausted to the point of collapse and no one to give them a hand or a break! I wrote something about parenting on my own blog from a parent & toddler pov. I wont link it though as it isnt a #freewrite. Good luck with those pesky kids!
