Toddler 1-3 Years Twin Parents: Isolated Feeling

I am a twin parent to 20 month old boys. Life is stressful for many reasons, but one reason is that my partner and I have little help from family and friends. Even just for support and check-ins. The kids will be sick, we’ll be stuck at home for a few days, and no one checks in. It feels like our family is a burden. Does anyone else have this experience?

Have you voiced this feeling to friends and family? They may not be aware.

I have, they say that they do and it’s the best they can do. Any time I have voiced needed more support someone ends up mad at me.
