I completely forgot they were going to be gone tonight until I read this thread!
Your overexaggerations just go to show that you have NOT read this thread in it's entirety. NO ONE ever said you were a bad mom. NO ONE ever said that the occassional night away from the kiddos is bad. ACTUALLY, what I said was that when they are OLDER and can handle the separation, it;s much more acceptable. I highly doubt 12 and 17 is too young for an overnight away from mom and dad. How do you get that it's the same as a week away from a 12 month old or a 2 year old?
