We can give others only what we have. Children sense accumulated fatigue and stress, no matter how much parents try to hide or disguise them. We all have so much to do, and we set so many goals and objectives ahead of us. But there are families that have more "special" circumstances and they require maximum involvement and commitment of parents. In such situations, it is especially important for moms and dads not to forget about themselves in this cycle of troubles and concerns.
