Things Worth Considering

In Part 2 of Parenting in a Pandemic, we look at things that are important ways of establishing connection with your children but also them connecting with you. Parenting is not easy but add a pandemic, unable to leave the house, work from home, in close contact with your spouse 24 hours a day, the children need your attention, and you are stressed to the max. What can you do with your children? This isn't about activities per se, it is about being given an extraordinary gift of time to spend with your children and discover who you both are. Creating a safe space for them, being authentic and real, holding space for your child, a space without judgment, or you should have or expectations. Give your child the chance to see who you are by your presence, your acceptance and openness. We have a gift from this Pandemic, one you will not have again in your lifetime, this gift of time because before we know it, they will be grown and off to start the cycle all over again with their kids
