Mom-guilt anyone?

The mom-guilt is never ending.

I feel guilty if I don’t play a game with Madelyn right when she wants me to or if I don’t have time to go outside and play ball with Sebastian when he asks.

It’s because I work from home.  I have to remind myself that just because I work in a home office and the kids know I’m here, doesn’t mean that I’m available to play with or provide entertainment for them.  I can’t feel guilty about that… I’m working for goodness sakes!  I have more of an issue with it than they do I think.

I’ve been working from home for 10 years now (atlantamoms.com and themommyinsider.com) and wouldn’t have it any other way but you’d think that I would have learned to deal with the mom-guilt by now!?

I feel guilty.  A lot.  I don’t like it.

Do you have mom-guilt?  What about and how do you cope?
