We have learned in times of crisis that spousal abuse,child abuse,drug abuse and suicide will rise. Family members need to understand these potential problem areas and work as a team to overcome them. Tolerance;understanding and planning are critical.by spouses as a crucial starting point so both of them and by extension their children can live with peace and loving security in difficult times like we are in now. Single parents have the great burden of keeping themselves in good mental health in order to help their children best adapt to a time they may be in fear,not in school and away from many of their friends and even family members. At a general helpful level,all of us can try to be kind and do acts of kindness for those we know are having a hard time. From a positive perspective,,this period of family members being together for extended periods of time can lead to bonding they have not experienced recently or maybe never.
