partying
okay so i’m 21 and i’ve never been partying, clubbing, raving or anything of the sort. i wanna go to hard summer so bad but my daughter will be 14 months old, im not sure if my mom will be okay with me going out for one night. i don’t really go out, i usually go get a dutch bros or the grocery store and ill come back in less than an hour. i feel so guilty for wanting to go out and party.

Just ask your mum 🤷 worst that can happen is that she says 'no'
Well if your mum is the only person then you’ll have to try to persuade her that 1. You deserve it and 2. You’ve never really gone before this’ll be your first time. If you can find someone to go with then it’s easier it’s “my friend invited me to go to this event w her” and so it’s easier if you’re not sure if they’ll yes as you are going w someone as opposed to going by yourself. I’m in my 30’s but I go out weekly and events every so often, I just went to a Latin fest 2w ago. I have a heap of fun so I don’t have any guilt. Are you going w your partner?
hey girl! i’m 23 with a 13 month old. i know all parents are different but my mom just took my daughter for Valentines weekend! the whole freakin weekend! they had an absolute blast. my mom encourages me to get out (even though i seriously don’t) and is typically happy to watch her if i give her a decent heads up (she works 2 jobs). i have a pretty good relationship with my mom, and i know all relationships with mothers are different. but maybe if you were like “hey mom, i could really use a night out with some friends to just be me. we want to go to (event), it’s at (time, date). would it be possible for you to watch baby from (drop off time-pick up time)” my mom also knows i feel safest when my daughter is with HER rather than anyone else. i hope you get your night out girl! you deserve it!
Hey girl I really understand this I try to go out sometimes and my mom will not watch my kids and I truly have nobody else Ik my kids would not be cool sitting with a stranger and I never go out
14 months is a long time!!! please don’t feel guilty for wanting to experience a club or party, you’re young! and just because you had a baby doesn’t mean you dont deserve to go out. i would definitely ask your mom and see if its at all an option for her. hopefully she is understanding. my son is only 7 months and ive had him stay with my mom twice already. i can’t imagine going 14 months without time for JUST you. you deserve it!!
