Wellbeing for time poor parents

Wellbeing for time poor parents

The research tells us what every working parent already knows – we’re all feeling guilty, rushed for time and completely overloaded.

The answer to this problem is supposed to be finding more ‘me time’. If only we could get to that yoga class, go jogging each morning or find more opportunities to lie in bed and read a book, we’ll all be okay.

They have to be! So that’s not the answer.
