A mother 33 Year old mother of 6 who says she has not had a life wants to start going out with her friends is there a problem?

Answer 1

If her partner is willing to take up the slack with the kids once a month or something so she can go see her friends that would probably be okay. But you don't have six kids unless you're prepared for that to be your "life". This isn't a harried mother of one or two who wants to go out once to celebrate that her youngest is weaned. This is someone who made a commitment beyond what's even rational in most societies. Chances are she started having babies way too early in life and missed out on her youth. That isn't something she can recapture once she's created a whole hockey team's worth of people who rely on her. 

Answer 2

not if she hires a good babysitter

Answer 3

It’s not a problem as long as she’s only going out occasionally and doesn’t begin to party like she’s a 20 year old, child free college kid. As long as she has responsible child care options, is otherwise a loving/hands on mom and has the financial means to go out, then a couple of girls nights out is just fine. For her to believe that she can go back to her pre-mom part days and go wild like she could have back then is nuts. We can’t go back no matter how much we want to. She’s a 33 year old mother of 6 kids now and that can’t be undone. It’s not her kids fault that she feels she missed out on that part of her life. Can’t expect them to wait in the wings while she does her wild oats waiting until she decides to resume mom mode and not suffering lasting issues. 

Answer 4

not as long as she has good babysitters
