In my case my child is still very little so ...Anon,<br />In my case my child is still very little so mostly it was about asking my husband for a day to myself. He was very willing. He totally understands my desire for some frivolous time to myself and I do the same for him when he needs a break from family life. Last year we all spent a cuddly morning in bed, then Mom went on her adventures and my daughter and her dad had their own fun time together. She had a great day and even helped her dad decorate it for a nice dinner they made which we all enjoyed on my return.<br /><br />To me it seems obvious that as human beings, no matter how much we love our families, a little time to oneself is a luxury that you have every right to ask for. In my life alone time is in very short supply as I have no family nearby --so we are all together all the time, without a day at Grandma's here or there. I have no problems teaching my child that it is important for all people to be by themselves sometimes...She needs to see me as a person independent from my role as mother. I think it's very healthy. Obviously this is all predicated on the child in question feeling loved and secure to begin with but if a mom is reluctant to take one single day to pamper herself with some alone time, then I'd say she has more than earned it.crabmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08126119863662468820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995876652383238082.post-68055580319324056082009-05-04T06:17:00.000-07:002009-05-04T06:17:00.000-07:00would also love a day of solitude at a spa!would also love a day of solitude at a spa!sstiganoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995876652383238082.post-20085916721268859882009-05-03T20:13:00.000-07:002009-05-03T20:13:00.000-07:00I agree with the solitude thing and the pampering/...I agree with the solitude thing and the pampering/reading/etc time...but has anyone EVER tried to seriously ask for that?
