When One Parent Steps Back: Navigating Toddler Care Alone

Lately, I've found myself shouldering almost all the responsibilities for our two toddlers, as my wife has nearly stopped participating in their daily care. It’s been a whirlwind of emotions—frustration, exhaustion, and sometimes even loneliness. I never imagined parenting would feel so one-sided, and I’m struggling to keep up with the constant demands. I miss the teamwork we once had and worry about how this shift is affecting our kids. If you’ve ever faced a similar situation, how did you cope? What helped you reconnect as partners and parents? I’d love to hear your stories or advice in the comments below. Let’s support each other through these tough moments. #ParentingStruggles #FamilySupport #RealLifeParenting #MarriageJourney #Parenting
