Positives about being the default parent

Hey ! I know a lot of us are struggling with being the default parent just wanna see / hear others positives about it try help our views shift a little ? Like I definitely struggle with it especially resenting my partner for it. I think one positive is my son finds wayy more comfort and safety in me which makes our bond even stronger !

I'm a sahm and all three kids are under school age so while I am the default parent and everything that comes with that, I also have my own special little world with them where we have our own language and I understand them more than anyone, and it's a very special time 💖

@Kirsten that’s actually a lovely way of seeing it 💕

I’m a sahm and my little one just gets me and I get her❤️🤩my mind of mine my heart in human form

Having a village is quintessential. Build your village of people not just babysitters but people you can trust to discipline and raise your kids.

I am also the default parent as I am a sahm for now. One of the best things is when my son falls asleep cuddled up to me, for me it's the best feeling in the world and I wish that moment would never end ❤️. Other positives are being the first one to see when he does something new, him always calling for me when feeling sick/scared/pain. Plus I think our bond is way stronger than what he has with his dad, although he does love his dad and is always excited to play with him

Today I left the room at my mums to get something out my car and when I came back my little girl gave me the biggest smiles ever. Even though her dad and nanny were still there. It melted me made me realise how strong our bond really is
