Parenting burnout is what happens when your internal battery hits 1% and the charger is in a room full of Legos you’re too tired to cross. It’s not just "being a little tired", it’s a total system failure where you feel detached, resentful, and like you’re failing at a job you can’t quit. To survive, you have to stop trying to be a "Super Parent" and start being a "Functional Human" by lowering your standards, asking for actual help, and reclaiming ten minutes of sanity a day
