I reached my breaking point as a self-employed, single mom when my family recently got COVID-19. Parenting has only gotten harder after 2 years

I reached my breaking point as a self-employed, single mom when my family recently got COVID-19. Parenting has only gotten harder after 2 years Quick summary: 1. A job would have to pay me enough to justify putting my daughter in aftercare, but that does nothing to help my son, whose day care doesn't offer extended hours due to pandemic restrictions. 2. My daughter went into school on Monday and told everyone in her second-grade class, including the teacher, that I was dying of COVID-19 — I actually had very mild symptoms — and then proclaimed she had a sore throat. 3. I finally had time to walk my dog in the mornings, write during the day, and tutor after school on days my kids were at their dad's #biyro #myboy #babyboy #father #baby More: https://biyro.com/blog/freelance/i-reached-my-breaking-point-as-a-self-employed-single-mom-when-my-family-recently-got-covid-19-parenting-has-only-gotten-harder-after-2-years/

I am a driver's bus driver. I love my job, but the national lack of driver means that I have never been more exhausted Quick summary: 1. Bus drivers also go out into traffic to make sure that the kids are safe, hoping people will stop. 2. Plus, the pandemic introduced a lot more challenges to our job: A lot of our normal restroom spots were closed, and there are only so many places that can fit a bus. 3. We sacrifice a lot to drive a school bus, and we do it because we care about these kids. 4. Sometimes it's about how bus drivers and teachers work together for the benefit of the children, and other times it's about stopping when our red lights are on #biyro #tumaini #city #readersareleaders #natgeo More: https://biyro.com/blog/freelance/i-am-a-drivers-bus-driver-i-love-my-job-but-the-national-lack-of-driver-means-that-i-have-never-been-more-exhausted/
