Constant struggle to balance work and parenting, advice but no help from relatives, rebellion from the teens, and society's blaming the mom for everything wrong with the kid s mirrored by the kids blame for the mom for everything that's not easy in their lives.

If you want to say "screw it" and escape for a day or a week or a month, there is no escape. If you feel like you're losing your sanity, or your health because the stress is eating you up, just buck up and move on.
