Her stories today are frightening. She seems to think that taking all this time out is going to help him settle down - I know she might think she is doing the right thing but at the same time she should really wake up and read the room. All of us who have small children would jump at the opportunity to be able to spend more time with them, but we have have to accept the reality that taking weeks upon weeks off work just isn't an option. Our children with time come to accept that too. All the smothering of this one child and as a consequence being miserable about it constantly is not a road anyone should go down. But by the sounds of it I don't think she is open to hearing the truth and to listening to people who have experienced what she is currently going through. It's sad.
 
I can’t believe she cancelled all her work. It’s such a privilege to be able to do that. Most people are struggling to stay afloat and would jump at the chance of work. Everything she shows is so far removed from reality. I’ve never heard someone talk about HS all of the time. Is it a new thing? And also my friend had to go back to work when baby was 9 months. She told me recently he cried and screamed every single day when she left him. He hated crèche. She found it so hard but she kept going. She went to work everyday because she had to! It’s tit what she had to go through but so many parents are in a similar boat every single day. And don’t have the time to document on instagram. Blows my mind.

My kid would prefer if it was me who did everything for her. But guess what, sometimes I have to work or do other stuff so her dad takes over. She's not happy but sometimes you literally don't have a choice. We can't all skip work for the day to go to a farm

'If my mam just moved here life would be so much easier but she lives in Dingle'. Ah here. Have some consideration for your mam Caroline - she has her own life and is getting older. She probably wanted to live in Dingle for some peace of mind.

Ah stop!! What is she like!!
She complains about her toddler kid always needing / wanting her , yet she is in her 30s and wants the EXACT SAME!!!!!
 
How has no one sat her down and said this isn’t normal behavior. And not her toddler’s behavior but her!! I’ll put my hands up and say I definitely wasn’t maternal at all before I had my little girl but I learnt on the job 😂 she’s my little mini me but there are limits to certain behaviors. I can understand at a young age they find it hard to regulate their emotions but you work through them and not just give in every time or let them dictate. I couldn’t imagine Caroline ever doing this by herself. My husband and I separated a few months before my girls second birthday and I just cracked on with it because I didn’t have the time or space to just sit and wallow. Caroline seriously needs a wake up call but I think this is just going to get worse 🙈

Anyone see this morning the child wanted to go away one direction to discover on his own, and she had to tell him to come to her, asking where he was going? It defeats the purpose! Let him wander off god sake! Some people shouldn’t have kids honestly

Yeah it’s car crash stuff! It’s me hi I’m the problem it’s me 🎶 ! It’s you Caroline! She talks all the time like the child is in charge or everyone and they have no choice but to do as he says. Setting him up for some serious issues. She seems manic, I really hope she stops this oversharing, I hope it’s regulated by law soon, so unfair on the boy.

I've noticed her doing similar, when he's sitting quietly watching TV, playing on his own or interacting with someone else she ALWAYS interjects and brings his attention back on her, she can't have it both ways like!

She needs to learn that SHE is the problem here, not the kid. I don't think she really wants him to be happy without her or be OK with her leaving - she's projecting her own neediness issues onto him.
Caroline, kids get used to mammy leaving for work, your child will be no different if you would give it a proper chance, you are paying a childminder to care for your son, let her do her job ffs!
 
She must be going through some sort of breakdown? On every single work call, if I’m working from home and my son is here. He wants to sit on my knee or climb all over me. If I leave the room, he will always look for me. Does Caroline think we all have time to get dressed and put on makeup and do our hair on our own? Reality check, all toddlers do this! It’s normal. How she is responding to it is not normal. How is she giving anxiety advice when she doesn’t know how to cope?
