Adult Only Beach Area

Cataholic, You sound like me when my children were pre-school age.
You couldn't pry me away from them. It wasn't until they were old enough
for grade school that I experienced "withdrawal" symptoms & didn't know
what to do with myself anymore. Getting to know yourself again and doing
things just for yourself is kinda weird at first.

Yeah, I think there is/will be a gradual weaning, but, for me (and Jones), it isn't now.

For some stay-at-home mothers, a break from the kids is a great thing. When mine were under 5, I would have loved a few minutes to myself. After they were 5, I was working so I got some quiet time and could enjoy being with them when I was home.

Now that I'm 'senior', I can enjoy others' kids at times. But I would appreciate adult only areas, just as I appreciate the non-smoking areas of restaurants.
