marshmallow Report post Posted June 15, 2006 <'> <'> I hope tou can take comfort in the fact that you aren't the only one. My bad mother days seem to increase as the temperature increases. I have had one today because I took DS to his swimming lesson which he is scared of! I'm sure by tomorrow morning we'll both be 'good mums' again!! Take care <'> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MumTee Report post Posted June 16, 2006 <'> <'> <'> The very fact that you're thinking you might be a bad mum is the evidence that you're not! 'bad mums' wouldnt stop to think about their kids for a second - Â You're doing your best poppet, and your best is good enough!! <'> <'> <'> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
