With all the coronavirus preparations, parents have seemingly forgotten something vital: To take care of ourselves.
As the coronavirus pandemic closes offices, restaurants and schools indefinitely, parents have prepared lesson plans. We have downloaded educational apps. Had careful conversations about the importance of hand washing with little ones. Filled pantries with two weeks of food and, apparently, months worth of toilet paper. It's not selfish to feel overwhelmed and need a moment to collect ourselves. We won't screw up our kids if we break down and cry.
Miller suggests that parents have an"age-appropriate conversation with children about what is going on and that it is a little scary, but that the parent will do whatever they can to keep everyone safe." Try one of these ideas to relieve anxietyConsider journaling."The power or getting things out from your head onto paper, even if it is just rambling, can be very rewarding," Miller says. You may also think about keeping a family journal, where everyone takes turns writing experiences about what's going on in the world right now. It might be interesting in the future to look back at what a surreal time the world is going through.
