Answer 2

What exactly do you do for him? What do you do that you consider neglect? You need to provide more information in order to get advice.

Also, to the person that said neglect is to abuse or rape, you're way wrong. Look up the definition of neglect and educate yourself.

Answer 3

The best thing you can do as a mother is don't beat yourself down because of the emotions your children are feeling, talk to your son, let him know that you don't go to college to get away from him but you go to make your lives better. good luck Neglect is not rape or abuse dude if your not here to answer questions and do your best by helping this poor lady then signout and don't come back, nobody needs your stupid, immature responses!

Answer 4

R U OKAY CAUSE NEGLECTING MEANS 2 ABUSE OR RAPE???

Answer 5

I felt the same way when I went back to college six months after my daughter was born. Think of it like this, you are doing something positive for you and your son. you guys are going to go in one direction, and you might as well make it positive. It is alot better than literally neglecting your son by doing something that will hurt the both of you. You are doing the right thing

Answer 6

If it feels like it then you probably are a little. Don't worry, just try to balance your time better, if you are doing the best you can, and only you can answer that, be honest with yourself and ask yourself am I doing the very best I can for my son, if you are then you are not neglecting him, if the answer is no, then find a way to do your best by him. We all feel that way sometimes.
