Since having my daughter 8 years ago, I am constantly worrying about the kind of parent I am and whether I am doing the best for her...in fact, I seem to spend most of my time feeling guilty for something or other. My greatest fear is her turning to me as an adult and telling me I have done a bad job.
My husband doesn't worry and feel guilty like this - he just gets on with it! Does anyone else spend their lives feeling guilty? And does it ever go away?
