There’s no way to be a perfect parent
  + stars: | 2024-05-13 | by ( Dr. Katie Hurley | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +7 min
I was stuck in the revolving door of work and parenting, and nothing about my personal life was Instagram-worthy. Somewhere between 2006 and now, parenting became a crash course in achievement, with social media grading us at every turn. Children and parents alike have unknowingly entered a relentless pressure cooker under the constant spotlight of social media. These can result in a cycle of increased mental health issues for both the parent and the child. There are two social media tricks that can be life-changing for adults: Mute accounts (you’re the only one who will know!)

Even parents, a demographic that is notoriously deprived of alone time, are not immune to the ongoing loneliness epidemic. About two-thirds, 66%, of parents said the demands of child-rearing sometimes or frequently make them feel lonely and isolated, according to a new survey by The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. Researchers polled 250 parents between the ages of 30 and 49. The best way to combat this experience is to prioritize social connection, says Kate Gawlik, an associate clinical professor at The Ohio State University College of Nursing and a researcher on parental burnout who designed the survey. "That's how connection is formed.

Parents are feeling lonely. Here’s why it matters

CNN —Despite working a full-time job in human relations and caring for her 6-year-old son Chase and 3-year-old daughter Millie, Anne Helmes often feels isolated and lonely. In fact, 66% of 1,005 surveyed parents felt the demands of parenthood sometimes or frequently left them feeling isolated and lonely, while nearly 40% felt as if they have no one to support them in their parenting role. “When parents are feeling lonely and isolated, that tells me their adult needs aren’t being met because they’re pouring what they can into their child. By definition, burnout is an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion, Gawlik said. “Burnout is not new for parents, but I think the pandemic took it to a totally different level,” she added.

The Parental Burnout Test
  + stars: | 2022-06-06 | by ( Catherine Pearson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The past two-plus years have been relentless for working parents, who have frequently been placed in the impossible position of doing their jobs and parenting simultaneously. And a recent survey, by researchers with Ohio State University, suggests they have paid a steep emotional price. In 2021, 66 percent of working parents met the criteria for parental burnout — a nonclinical term that basically means they were so physically and mentally depleted that they may feel like bad parents or emotionally pull away from their children. The researchers based their findings on an online survey of 1,285 working parents who responded to their 10-question “Working Parent Burnout Scale.” The test is a tool that moms and dads can use to assess whether their burnout goes beyond the fatigue that all parents feel at some point — and just how serious it is. “It’s this constant feeling of having to be on, 24/7,” said Kate Gawlik, an associate professor of clinical nursing at the Ohio State University College of Nursing and a co-author of the report.
