i feel guilty as a parent because i do n't like to part in a lot of my children 's school activities sometimes it just gets a little overwhelming . there can just be too much going on at once , especially if you have more than one child . exactly as i 'm always busy but feel like a bad parent as most of the other kids have there parents there . you just have to do what is best for you and your family . one day your kids will understand , especially when they have kids of their own and have so many other things going on .
Perceiving oneself as an inattentive parent compared to others.
