I feel like I'm failing my kid


I have a 3 year old who is out of daycare due to the pandemic. I work in human services and I was recently transferred to another program to assist with the overwhelming amount of applications and phone calls we were getting, but I am now on the phone all day. I am so extremely grateful that both my husband and I were able to maintain employment during these times, but my husband works outside of our home so I am here with our 3 year old while trying to work. I feel so bad because all she wants to do is play with me and she is so excited to spend the day with me, but I have to keep turning her down and telling her to leave me alone so that I can work. I feel like this isn't fair to her but I also don't know how to fix it. I'm one of 5 kids and I have a lot of abandonment issues stemming from my childhood and I don't want to do that to my kid. I feel so much guilt about all of this. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2zve1Bl
