You are probably stressed about a lot of things:

• Will I get sick? If I do, who will take care of my kids?
• What if my kids get sick or one of my family members?
• I’m out of work. How will I pay for my bills?
• How long will this last? Will things get worse?

The list, I’m sure, goes on and on. So what can you do to manage your feelings, anxiety, and fear?

• If your fear and anxiety feel unmanageable, please contact your family doctor or click on this link for Milwaukee Resources

Talk with your child and have developmentally-appropriate conversations about what they’re thinking and feeling. Look for changes in your child’s behavior. If you are concerned about any changes or behaviors, contact your family doctor.

I’ll post some resources as I come across them.
