Wo has days where you want to just walk away from your kids. I love both of them,(22 months and 6 weeks) I feel horrible but after a day where both were extra whiny and my oldest still does not talk so it can get frustrating just trying to figure out what he wants, I just want to walk away and just go somewhere for some piece and quiet.

    Definitely not the only one. I have 2 yr and 11 week old boys. They both demand all my attention all day long and very rarely give me quiet time. My husband works long days and sometimes when he gets home I have to escape to our room or the store for a bi
