Funny how we moved from talking about children’s performance in schools to now discussing their well-being at home. This world is constantly changing but we bet none of us thought that it’ll change so much in so little time. It’s not easy, it’s not normal, so please stop being so hard on yourself. It is difficult to take care of family, work, do household chores and keep your little ones occupied, all at the same time. The tempers are going to run short, the work will pile up, there will be crying, and stress levels might shoot up. Being around with the people who are closest to us and knows us better than everyone else is bound to bring the best and on some days, the worst in us. That doesn’t mean that there is something wrong with them or us; with so much pressure and changes from the world, everyone is bound to act out. Even your little ones and let’s accept it, it can get a little bit taxing at times. We need to address that even though there are a million ways to keep them occupied and teach them something new, we also need to understand that we have to tell them what’s going on and how it affects the world as they know it. It sounds like a lot of information to grasp, but their little minds are smarter than we think. Let’s pause, reflect, and try to share our honest emotions with each other more and encourage our children to do the same. It’s not going to be easy, but we promise it’s going to be worth it. You are not alone in this, we are always there with you.

With love,

Team MY CHHOTA SCHOOL
