Imperfect Parent a.k.a. Ordinary Parent

Am I a bad parent because this morning I threw a show on the t.v. for Peanut and gave him a bowl of dry cereal for breakfast so I could have five minutes alone? Am I a bad mommy because I actually do that more often than I do not? Being a stay-at-home mom is best described as redundant and a chronic cycle. It can be terribly boring, isolating, and extremely mind numbing. Often I fantasize about what it would be like to work outside the home and speak to people who want to talk about more than Caillou or firetrucks. I sometimes think about what life would be like without a kid or responsibility in that realm. Does this make me a bad parent? Does this make me a bad person? I would like to think this is within the realm of a normal and average parent and human being because it is natural for me (and everyone else) to not want to suck at either of those………….I sure hope so.
