She said I was a bad mommy. I apparently didn't pay attention to her. How do you focus on work and baby at the same time. Can't wait for school to begin. Please help. ...

How old is she? I have five kids and sometimes it is worth it to just take about ten minutes and read a story to them or hug and have special time.
It helps and they are content for a long time again.

she is 5.
I want to do all what you said but I am so torn between my work and her. I dont feel like I am doing justice at all.
Today is one of those bad days I guess...

I agree. I can tell when all my 3 yr old wants to do is have some attention. We can never get that back. Before we know it, they'll be gone.

My oldest is 20 and I remember the day I was told I was a bad mommy. It cut deep. My middle son was one who needed all the attention and if it was not what I would call the good attention he would do anything to get me to concentrate on him. He is 16 now and he still on some days needs all my attention. It will get better. Children have bad days just like we do.

I agree that its not that easy to focus your attention on two things, especially that they are both important, ur work and ur child..But it is just a matter of managing ur time..and also having a good communication with ur child is very important and letting them understand the situation.

I am not a dad. I think our dear Admin, can answer this well. Because one of his motto is to raise his kid in a gentle way and he does manage the job. I hope he will.

I understand where you are coming from. My little guy doesn't talk yet (14 months). I usually work when he is napping. But sometimes I am in the middle of sometime when he wakes up. He gets a snack and I try to set him up with something, but usually I stop what I am doing. I mostly work at nap time and night time.

Seems like you want to get rid of your child... Lols!!! Seriously, you have to talk to her in a more mature manner, tell her that what you are doing is absolutely for her... And you need her cooperation, Life is getting harder and harder as it seems and you need to go along with it (just hope it'd work with your child too). And tell the truth, you're a working mom and you can't go full-time mom as she'd like it to be, but at least you are making every possible way to catch up with her, 'coz you want her to be somebody... take a deep drama on this..
