I just recently divorced and got the house. As my working hours does not permit, I had to leave my only child of 5 years old to caregiver. I fetch him only every weekend. He is still attending childcare despite giving him to my caregiver because I believe it is better that he is learning at least than wasting time at home. I also need the time during weekdays after work to pursue what I have lost during my bad marriage.
The physical and emotional abuse left me depressed and suicidal. But after the divorce and this arrangement for childcare, I am a much stronger person and able to be there for my son.
But I am always called a bad mother by my caregiver, selfish for pursuing my night classes and my son is victim of my decision.
Help me. Am I bad?
