Birth Mother Matters in Adoption #70: Parenting During the Coronavirus Pandemic

Birth Mother Matters in Adoption #70: Parenting During the Coronavirus Pandemic Parenting is the best job in the world, but it doesn’t come without bad days, hurt feelings, and often time regrets over decisions parents have made. Right now, most states have a “Shelter in Place” or “Stay Home” order due to Covid-19. Most schools have closed, and so kids are at home, unable to go to friends houses or the mall or even the movies. For kids, depending on their age this is a difficult time; their lack of ability to have face to face social interaction, recess, sports, just the shear ability to leave their house is challenging. For parents who are furloughed or have begun working from home, having to adjust to new challenges of telecommuting is tough, but add in having your kiddos at home can add another layer. The cherry on the top is now you are having to help your child or at least monitor that they are completing their schoolwork. April is Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month please remember this during COVID-19 and shelter-in-place orders. In the midst of this outbreak of COVID-19, many families may find themselves facing many of the risk factors for child abuse and neglect: parental stress, economic instability, food insecurity, lack of adequate child care, and lack of normal routines. Reach out for help if you need it, you are not alone. Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline is a 24-hour hotline with resources to aid in every child abuse situation. All calls are confidential. Call 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453) for help
