My Daughter is going with my ex for holidays, short break.
I looking forward for next weekend. Totally freedom, I'm feeling like a dog without the lead. Getting excited. In my mind..I Have lots of plans and sex Maybe 
but.. I wonder Its normal... Normal being happy because child going for holidays without me..
I love my child but it's normal? |

Of course it is. There are no real breaks from being a parent and I relish the nights when Nanny can have our Little One and we get a couple of hours just to be ourselves again. Doesn't mean we don't love them or accept that having kids is a full-time commitment, it's just nice being able to relax, let your hair down and be you for a while.
Saying that, if you're anything like me, that'll all go out the window as soon as your're away from her and you'll be pining for her return.

Omg so I'm normal then?
My culture is very similar to Polish, when woman have a child..Then in first is a mum..Later wife/partner and she is on the end.
But it wasn't nice for me when I heard opinion I'm strange because my daughter is going abroad and I can't wait for free time. |

Yes its absolutely normal. Our two have left home and people think I'm odd because I don't and never have suffered from empty nest syndrome. We enjoy the freedom it gives us, doesn't mean we love our children any less  |

The way we look at it is that our children aren't meant to be with us for life, they need to live their own lives and we celebrate that rather than regretting it. |

My oldest boy (3) went to Greece for 2 weeks with my mum and sister last year - like sure I was majorly worried about him but our whole family went and he had an amazing time! 9 adults and 8 kids and they all stayed in the same hotel together so it was really good for them!! He absolutely loved it and didn't miss me at all lol
I was nervous of course but it was also nice to have that time at home with our newborn!
As for both? Both our boys sleep out at mother-in-laws Friday-Sunday due to our work schedules and it's such a nice break even if we're busy  |

Single working mum of three and already upset that my eighteen year old and seventeen year old will both be leaving home by December. My youngest of thirteen is going to her dad in America for the month of August. Feeling really weird having time to myself, even with work. Have not spent a night without at least one of them in the house since the oldest was born and would not have it any other way. |
