Parental Burnout
Parental burnout is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion that parents may experience due to the demands of raising children. It can result from prolonged stress, lack of support, and feeling overwhelmed by parenting responsibilities. Symptoms include fatigue, irritability, and a sense of detachment from one's children.
This condition can affect a parent's ability to care for their children and maintain a healthy family environment. Factors contributing to parental burnout include unrealistic expectations, societal pressures, and inadequate self-care. Recognizing and addressing these challenges is essential for improving parental well-being and family dynamics.
