Why does the pandemic impact women harder, especially wives and mothers? Because women already do more of the housework, cooking and cleaning, and childrearing. It’s the same or worse in quarantine, especially when you add working-from-home and distance learning for kids. What does all of this extra responsibility “cost” women in stress, in their emotional health? Here are the new rules: Stay at home. Don’t go out. Keep six feet away. Your kids need you. The school needs you. Your partner needs you. Work needs you. And you? Well, your needs come last in a pandemic. For the last 20 years, I have been helping moms and dads to become the parents their kids deserve. I am a licensed professional, a Positive Psychologist, and the happily-married (for almost 30 years) father of two kick-ass (now grown) kids. Right now, parents want to know how to retain some sense of normalcy for their kids. I can help you find your way back to that balance.
