Am I a bad mom for letting my boys 2 & 1 play in their room by themselves? My husband says I can’t leave them unattended. I mean I check on them constantly but I can’t just sit with them 24/7 while I have to get other things done.... Right?
It’s not like you’re leaving them in the tub. :p and I’m gonna guess you are a pretty good mom if this is a concern. You know your kids well enough to sense when something isn’t right
Sounds good to me. My son roams freely (besides the bedrooms) and does what he wants because its baby proofed. BUT the other day I was making dinner and look in the living room for him and didn't see him. Go in the hallway nope not there so I figured his older sister took him, nope! He was in my room going through his drawers. Learned that day he can open doors because I always keep them closed Haha
My 2.5yr old and my almost 11 month old are constantly playing with each other in their toy room. My son is walking so he just follows his sister everywhere. I think it’s fine and they play so well together. Take his advice on board and check in more often but at the end of the day when they are on your watch, you do what your comfortable with.
You don’t need you head up your kid’s asses to be a good mom. Yes you need your own time. If everything is child proofed and they are checked on I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to leave them unattended at home. I do this with my son.
