The baby was only two months old and mom needed a break? Isn’t that what dad is for?

In the homeschooling community as well as some Amish communities, girls from about 11 to 14 are seen as mother’s helpers who will entertain a baby while mom gets things done.

That isn't always the answer. This is a local event just wrapping up here with a mother's boyfriend convicted of killing her baby.

Sure is getting old.

Hey, when my son was six weeks old I was at the end of my physcial rope. My aunt took my kids for the weekend and allowed me to sleep and take antibiotics.

Being a new mom (especially without family support) is rough.

Yes. Two months after the baby is born, the mom is exhausted.

So, if you know anyone in this predicament, give them a freaking break!

Dad? Come on....you think there’s a dad on the scene?

Needs a break after 2 months? Maybe needs to get back out to the bars and, um, get physical with someone again. Ya. I know. I’m jaded.

Yeah I was one of those weird Mom’s. I wouldn’t leave my babies when they were that little with anyone, not even my own Mother! Maybe with their Dad to run to the store or sonething, but I was rushing like crazy to get back.
