[quote=Anonymous]We are practicing social distancing in our family and although we both work fulltime we’ve decided it’s the right thing to do to not use her (still pay her- probably more than we usually do) and not work for us for the foreseeable future. The challenge now is figuring out how to convey this to her as she is very low information and doesn’t even begin to understand what’s happening. I want to express it in a way that avoids hurting her feelings (she’s part of our family) but expresses that importance of this decision for all of our families and our community. We will very much make sure to emphasize we will pay her every single week as usual. Thoughts on what to say? She will feel very confused and hurt. And yes I realize our ability to do this is REAL LUXURY right now. It’s going to make working with a 4 and 6 year old way harder, but this is unprecedented times. My main concern is taking care and doing the right thing. [/quote]
