Are Your Small Children Driving You Crazy?

Here Are 7 Tell Tale Signs that They Have Already Pushed You Over the Edge

Are your small kids driving you crazy? Here are seven tell tale signs that they have pushed you over the edge.

Number one
Your never alone. You can't go to the bathroom with out an escort. New mothers this is the ugly side of motherhood that people fail to tell you about. There is nothing more nerve racking than a four year old waiting at the bathroom door asking "Mom, why are you so quiet. Do you need me to help you?"

Number two
When someone asks you your name do you accidentally answer "Mommy". I have to remind myself that my name is not mom, mama, or mommy. When I go out in public my husband makes me where a name tag.

Number three
Your idea of a break is going to the grocery store alone. Do you find yourself slipping out of the house as fast you can with out anyone noticing? Then calling your husband to let him know he's in charge until you get back. Do you walk down the isles aimlessly just to kill time. Do you find solace in the produce section? Do you help other customers take their groceries to their car?

Number four
You have an infant permanently affixed to your hip. Although you were not born with this small person glued to your hip, for the last year or so you have been functioning as one half of a conjoined body. You have learned to complete your house work with one half of your body. You cook, clean, and do the laundry with one functioning arm.

Number five
When your alone with your thoughts, you find your self singing the them song to Sponge Bob Square Pants. This one is dangerous because that will stick in your head like gum in a three year olds hair.

Number six
You sleep in a queen size bed with your husband (who snores) a four year old, a nine month old, a dog and a cat, and you live in a six bedroom 2500 square foot house. Do you stay awake at night trying to find a comfortable position? Do you often wake up in the morning with a foot in your face?

Number seven
This sign is the most indicative that your kids have absolutely driven you crazy. The number seven tell tale sign that your small children have actually driven you crazy is the fact that despite it all you wouldn't change a thing about your life. Motherhood is a crazy phenomena.

    First - to 'TheTruth.' You miss the point: if you are a stressed-out Mom, you don't have time to wory about word usage. Try is some time: You will not like it.
    This article is well written but I never found this to be true and I have 3 children. To be a parent, you have to be very ingenous(?) to come up with ways to keep your children interested and occupied while you have your "private times."

    "Your" is the possessive of you. The contraction for "you are" is you're. Maybe writing isn't your calling.

    For a minute I thought my wife wrote this article! I think you have written this for stressed-out parents everywhere! Great article!
