Should i feel guilty for wanting to take a break from volunteering ?

I've been a volunteer with a youth organisation for the last 15 years or so but after recently starting a family I have found that I have not been enjoying the volunteering as much, it has almost become something that I have to do not want to do. As much as I think I could do with a break from it I don't want to let people down.

Not at all. We all have to take care of ourselves first and we all get burned out. You have a family now and that is priority. No shame in having responsibilities. No one can do it all. At least not well.
