This January 2021, the new year feels different. More of the same. It\u2019s been 10 months, almost one year of living through the COVID-19 pandemic. Our lives are the most isolated they have been given the dark, cold winter and a holiday season that was \u201cokay\u201d and pretty much unsatisfying.<\/p>\n<p>As we continue to parent day by day with virtual learning, working from home, video meetings and chats and limited interactions with the outside world, our stress and exhaustion level is increasing.<\/p>\n<h3>What a Mess!<\/h3>\n<p>The struggles of parenting during this time have been immense. Think about how you and your family are coping. Are you, your significant other or children:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Over eating?<br \/>\n\u2022 Under eating?<br \/>\n\u2022 Over sleeping?<br \/>\n\u2022 Under sleeping?<br \/>\n\u2022 Struggling to fall asleep?<br \/>\n\u2022 Feeling lethargic?<br \/>\n\u2022 Over exercising?<br \/>\n\u2022 Feeling anxious?<br \/>\n\u2022 OCD-like behaviors?<\/p>\n<p>As we continue to not be able to identify an end in sight, we may be finding ways to cope that aren\u2019t necessarily helpful. Take note of how you and your family are coping and discuss if your go-to ways of managing through this time are not bringing relief.<\/p>\n<p>Many of us, as parents, and our children feel out of control, anxious, and our usual outlets are not available. Mom\u2019s nights out, going to the spa, exercising at the gym or extracurricular activities, hanging with friends and other ways to have fun and decompress are no longer available to us, or are available with significant limitations.<\/p>\n<h3>When Should I Start to Worry about My Kids?<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=&#8221;Click here to continue reading&#8221; color=&#8221;primary&#8221; link=&#8221;url:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.shieldhealthcare.com%2Fcommunity%2Fgrow%2F2021%2F01%2F25%2Fcontinued-pandemic-parenting%2F&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Continued Pandemic Parenting written by Dr. Liz Matheis, published on www.shieldhealthcare.com 1\/25\/21 The beginning of the new year usually brings hope, resolutions and plans.
