Q. How has your children’s mental health been impacted by the pandemic?
This is tricky. My kids are in some ways better placed to handle the lockdown as they spent their early years in a domestic violence version of a lockdown, of which the current lockdown is a miles better alternative. So for us, compared to those early DV years the current lockdown hasn't been a huge toll on the kids. It is slowly starting to wear on my eldest who is missing other kids and wants to get back to clubs and parties, but she's able to wait and we're able to adapt and make things work.
