Burnout - why you secretly hate parenting

Exhausted? Stressed? Angry? Sick of being a parent? Maybe it's not typical fatigue from taking care of children - you could have parental burnout.  Psychologist Hélène Gatland joins parenting author Maggie Dent to explain why parental burnout is on the rise, how it impacts mums and dads differently and what to do if you think you - or your partner - has it.   The advice provided in this Parental As Anything podcast is general in nature and does not take into account your personal situation. If you require further advice specific to your needs please consult a professional.    Host: Maggie Dent  Producer: Josie Sargent  Consulting Producer: Carmen Myler  Executive Producer: Kim Lester  Sound design: Simon Branthwaite  Field recordings: Rebecca McLaren
