We love our kids, but parenting through a pandemic can be challenging and stressful. Social distancing and virtual classes means a lot more together time at home.
Ten-year-old Lil and 7-year-old Ceci live in Seattle. Their school is closed during the COVID-19 outbreak, and their parents are both working from home. With all their new free time, Ceci has really upped her coloring game, and Lil has honed her basketball skills. But the girls admit they still get restless, and tensions can run high. “I miss having alone time without my sister because we always get in fights,” said Ceci. She even confessed the novelty of not having to go to school is starting to wear off. “I miss talking about jokes and learning like we do at school.”
