[quote=Anonymous]OP, for me it’s that I feel like I haven’t had time to recover from the months we spent trying to juggle work and kids, both, all the time. DH’s and my workloads both increased during the pandemic, and because we could WFH, people assumed caring for children was tenable. That time was very, very stressful and then while eventually our kids returned to childcare and school, it’s not like we had a month off work or whatever to just decompress from it all. That doesn’t even touch all the emotional strain of the tension around masking in schools, Omicron in schools, etc. I just want to hit pause for a month or two, but that’s not possible. So instead, we plod on, trying to recover bit by bit.[/quote]
