[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 447603, member: 11847"] Our difficult child is a lot younger, but lately has been pretty intense. My husband works outside the house and is gone days at a time, so basically he has time to "escape". He is not resting since he is working (very hard), but don't have to deal with difficult child issues. Me, I'm with the kids everyday, all day (except once a week when they go to daycare so I can catch at my home office). What I found has helped me is to let husband home with the kids while I take a break alone: go grocery shopping alone, take 1/2 hour to care for my animals alone (with no kids' help). It does take some time away from being with husband, but allows me to unwind a little. We have no family around us either. [/QUOTE]
