I feel like a bad mother

I feel like a bad mother

Scotty had a baseball game tonight, so we went, Scotty, Cassidy and I (Jim was working). It was SOOOO cold on the field, and even though Cass was all bundled, she was freezing, so I asked Scotty's friends dad (who we are very good friends with) if he could drop Scotty off at home after the game.

I felt like a bad mother having Cassidy out in such cold weather, but an even worse mother for leaving Scotty at the game

You are not a bad mother.
Scotty is bigger and therefore he is not as vulnerable as Cassidy.
Don't be so hard on yourself.

You're not a bad mother at all. You are a wonderful mom by trying to accommodate all of your children at once regardless of the elements. You are a super mom remember that. All of your kids will understand the sacrifices you made later on in life. I cheers to you in being a wonderful and thoughtful mom. Hats off to you!!!!!!!!
I also send you a hug for making such a hard decision.

Stacy you are so not a bad mother. You showed your support for Scotty but you still have to look after Cassidy!!! I don't think you did anything wrong.

My daughter had a soccer game tonight and it was cold, I don't blame you for leaving! I would of too, but my little one wanted to stay to watch her sister play, I was begging her to come to the car with me!!!

You are not a bad mother!!! You spent a little time with one, and a little time with the other!!!
Now that you have two, you can't devote your entire day to both of them, especially if Scotty has extracurricular things... you were being a GREAT mom for going to the game at all!!!

I know how you feel when my older one was in t-ball I had just had my baby so it was cold we sat in the minivan almost every practice because it was too cold for the baby outside

dont worry that doesnt make you a bad mom...if anything it makes you a good mom because you are preventing the baby from getting sick
