Balancing Motherhood and Work with Caroline Frost

Although when you make the entire dinner of all their favorite things and you go to the grocery store, you actually leave work early to go do it and you make that dinner for them and then they're like, this is disgusting.

I've literally never liked macaroni and cheese in my life.

And then I'm like, this is, this is

insane.

This is insane behavior.

And I don't know how to relate to you or to manage it.

I told my

middle son the other day, he doesn't like anything.

In fact, I offered to bring snacks to something for his school.

And he's like, no, cause you'll bring all the healthy snacks.

And I was like, I will get the junkie snacks for you.

Oh my gosh.

But every time I cook,

he'll say something about it.

He's gotten better.

But I told him recently, I was like, you know what? When you're older and I come to your house and I have dinner, I'm just going to tell you everything that I hate about it.

And

Okay, is that the right approach? Probably not.

But he

laughed.

He started, like, dying laughing, and he was like, okay, Mom.

So I think sometimes they just need to also understand we're people too.

Like, we have feelings.

Oh, I think I've actually said that before.

Like, I am a human being, okay? Like, oh, my gosh.
