Saturday, October 10, 2020 7:34 AMI wish I had better advice for anyone trying to raise young kiddos right now(during a pandemic, where almost everything is f**ked), but here are a couple things I’ve learned that might be helpful: Tell your kids that you love them a lot(as in frequently), even if it’s only to remind yourself that you actually do love them. Try to lean into the good parts, when everyone is happy in the moment, and if you’re struggling to identify ‘good parts’, try ice cream.
On the whole, the anxiety, fear, and doubts about how this is going to affect your kids… it is overwhelming. One last thing to remember though: You’re not always going to have to do this parenting thing during a pandemic. One day, this stupid period of time will end.
