Lightening the Lockdown Load

Lightening the Lockdown Load

Lockdown is hard. It hurts our kids and it’s a drain on parents. The first time was tricky. There were challenges. For some, it was horrible. But most of us managed ok and got through it.

But with each subsequent lockdown, things get harder. The pressure feels higher. The demands feel greater. The children seem more oppositional - or worse, apathetic. The home learning stretch feels tougher.

There’s work stress, couple stress, school stress, financial stress, family stress, and stress about being stressed!

While we can’t click our fingers and make it magically disappear, there are real strategies that parents and children can rely on to not just survive but thrive – even in a far-too-long lockdown. They’re simple ideas that you can start on right away.

Join Dr Justin Coulson, one of Australia’s most trusted parenting specialists, as he shares 4 secrets to make it through the pain of the latest Australian COVID-19 lockdowns.
