My story about: Over-Scheduling
Jerimiah2911's story
May 19, 2008
I have a teenager which we share the physical custody. He is with us 6 months of the year and the other parent see's him alternating weekends and the same for us when our 6 months is over.
My problem is that when he is with us his dad try's to schedule him with alot of activities, not allowing us to enjoy any downtime or family time with him. I feel like the bad guy if don't allow it. Also feel resentment toward his father because of his way of persuading our son.
I was brought up in a family where we only did one activity at a time. As kids we had time to relax and do different activities with family, friends without feeling
overcommitted to alot of activities.
I myself have tried to sacrifice and bend to these request's, but with little respect on the other end for what I would like to impact to our son.
