Like I said I don't care if they are here and I totally get the need to do errands/recharge/do renos/ clean house etc but why not keep the child once in awhile at home. In the 2 years I have had the one child he has never had a day with daddy on daddy's day off unless I was closed or he was sick. My other two have only been here a few months so I can't really say if summer will be different.
Time goes by so fast and in no time these littles will be in school. I just see so many missed moments and memories these parents could be making.
My husband has 2 kids from a previous marriage. He missed all those moments when they were growing up. We struggled with infertility and were blessed with a miracle baby (now 6yrs old). It just breaks my heart to see these parents not taking more time when its there.

I know what you're saying but really, we don't know what they do with their child so it's not really fair to say that they're missing out. I know a few sahm's that honestly, aren't great moms. It's parents like that, that I think about quality vs quantity.
Not all will agree but I think it's important for parents to realize that they just aren't mom and dads, they're people too and I think to be a great parent, you need to take time for yourself and do things that make you happy.
