I understand the jealous feelings, but if she is a good person who takes excellent care of your child, you are very blessed and should be thankful. Your child may spend more time with her than you right now, but you are the mommy and that will never change. You really need to be grateful to her and show her that you appreciate how she is taking care of your child. Then when you and your child are together, do something special and fun. Your child is blessed to have so many people who love and care about him.
Reply:r u rich? and I would take some time and play with your doughter and mabey go to your work with her. just spend some time
Reply:Spend time with him when you have time, before you leave for work and when you get home, on weekends and holidays. You shouldn't be jealous, you should be grateful that she takes good care of your son. Don't you realize that it's hard to find someone who'll take care of other people's children for a living?
Reply:Let the made adopt him.
Reply:The kid sees the maid as mommy...not you....maybe you should spend more time with him or even quit working.


The maid is there for all the happy, sad and fun times....while you are out self satisfying yourself.
Reply:Ok....first of all....Mom's don't work to self satisfy 90% of the time.


With an aging mom and kids....who wouldn't NEED a maid?


take that stress and some of the snarky comments off your back, right away!


Your son is transitioning to having his sister gone. He may feel like she is getting the extra attention right now and he gets more one on one time with the help during the day, so he is reacting to that. Make some special mom-son time and relax. YOU are his mom. He loves YOU. He might love her since she has cared for him, but HE LOVES YOU %26amp; WANTS YOUR ATTENTION! 2 year olds can't express their real wants very well. He craves stability and routine. Try to be sure you are adding to that, and he'll be fine. And so will you.
Reply:Well, this may be a result of your abscence and your maid's influence. I suggest several ways to prevent this situation into spirialing out of control.





Ttry to spend the weekends with him.Take him to the park or somewhere where he will enjoy. Try to be involved in anything he does. However, there is a fine line between trying to be involved and being a busy-body. Try to put across the image of a motherly and caring figure.





Even though as a mother, the respect will come naturally, your bond will not be very strong. As an infant, it is vital for you to be able to bond with your child. Once he matures, you can be able to explain to him that, in order to put food on the table, you will have to work.





Also, try to patch up up your relations with your maid. As a vital person in your son's life, it is important that you are the maid's friend. She may even be of use when you need to make up for all the lost time during the weekends.





That's all I can say,


Good luck
Reply:dont be jealous or mad at your maid shes doing her job and if your son likes her so much then shes doing a good job but you need to find more time to spend with him he clings to her cuz hes used to being with her take some time off or on your days off make those days for just you and your kids...
