Like you just have more time and it doesn't mean that I'm not parenting . Obviously , my kids are around on the weekend but also being divorced I have even more time . So here's the dirty little secret of divorce that no one talks about you .
I think I'm a big believer in nature and nurture . So I think , you know , some of it comes from genetics and , but yes , like my ex and I , we um we parent , we parented well and we continue to co parent well and I'm thankful for that and really appreciative of that and , but so that has been a very big change because when you have Children that are dependent on you , you don't really have a life that is your own , right ? And that changes kind of overnight , right ?
Obviously , my kids are around on the weekend but also being divorced I have even more time . So here's the dirty little secret of divorce that no one talks about you . Parent part time .
And on the one hand that can be really hard and sad because you're not with your kids part of the time . But on the other hand , you're thrown into not being with your kids at all part of the time and during that not being with them , then you get , you literally are on your own . It's not like even , it's not even like when you , it's like a different feeling like I almost can't describe it .
And so , and you have , yeah . So that happened three years ago and I had never even like , you know , there were times when , um , you know , my kids were at school and I had time to myself or there were other , you know , I had time before that but it wasn't until I was divorced where I was like , whoa , this is different . This feels different .
