I am a mom also of 2-one is a very messy teenager! I too, love teaching
art -but consider my self an artist ..not much time for art these days
but I have found I need to do a good job whereever I am at the moment
I'm there! one day at a time. I also have a small horse farm, study
classical riding and show dressage...My husband is happily ignored so he
can play on the computer as long as he wants...Finding balance is whats
imp. when I was in college I thought art was my God /Now I thank god for
the energy to do everything need to do This young person probably needs
to lighten up( I must add I cook infrequently, clean once a week at best
, and rarely do anything i don't want to do ) No time!-good luck-not
every one is cut out to teach kids -some are better with geriatrics,
adult programs, there is so much to do you oght to do what you enjoy.
