It doesn't stop. As a matter of fact the demands sometimes get greater the older they get. The only thing that you can do is put a support system in place to hopefully assist you. Sometimes you can find young college students that can assist with some of the errands,chores and babysitting. When my son was younger, because I am a single parent and a business owner I had a live in nanny. He is older now, so I don't need a full time nanny. I do have now someone to come in to help with the cleaning.

Well its a case of we choose to do this role in life so its get on with it and do the best you can, with lots of help from husband and children along the way. It never stops there is always somethnig that needs doing, even after you have gone to bed you will think of something that still needs to be done. We need to learn to switch off sometimes espically in bed or we will wear our minds out

you just put one foot in front of the other and keep going, the rewards will out way the bad feelings and all the stress will be well rewarded. I know it is hard and stressful just remember to take a day for yourself to regroup every once in awhile to caught your breath and thank the good Lord for all the blessings that you have and all will turn out good,

It never stops and its extremely stressfull and demanding but also extremely rewarding.
