How the pandemic has made many parents appreciate family time more—and what impact that may have going forward, writes ThePrimaryCarer
. Parents, and especially mothers, do not have enough “discretionary time.” When is there time for parents to choose what they want to do? The same goes for a lot of kids.This was the situation right before the Coronavirus pandemic swept the world. Shocked parents found themselves at home, sheltering from a deadly disease. Suddenly, they were responsible for everything. Parents were working full time from home, managing young children, and supervising e-learning. It was a huge strain.
Without homework or activities, without commutes, families began to rediscover each other. There was time to hang out. Gupta explained how much he’s been enjoying his kids. “The other day my kids were leading my wife around the house, stopping to take deep breaths with eyes closed.
