It’s kind of a privilege to have time or energy for things like that. I’m a single parent of abused children with significant mental health issues, and was a victim myself. Any time I find is spent maintaining my house or crying into my pillow. If my oldest manages to become a functional adult, maybe I’ll eke out some scraps of energy.
I hope you do. It’s hard to parent through trauma, especially when you have to maintain a job as well. I’m sure you are a great parent though and your kids have their best chance at being functional adults because of you. Stay strong❤️
