Slowing down and reducing the amount of activities on the schedule each day can allow everyone to spend more time together and build a stronger connection.
And finally, if you’re skipping family dinners to go out night after night, that’s an indicator that you’re unhappy being around your kids. It may not be intentional, but it’s an escape tactic used for avoidance.
You can make changes to recover from rust-out by dedicating an evening to spending quality time with your children. Play whatever games they want to work on reconnecting.
As a parent, all you can do is your best. Let go of any ideas of perfection. The more flexible you are when things don’t turn out the way you expected, the better you’ll be able to keep from rusting out!
