COVID-19 caused unprecedented worldwide change and loss. It shaped who we can see and what we can do - at home, school, work and play. No one really knows yet what the long-term impact, if any, will be on children.
What is known though, is that a caring, consistent and open parent or carer, who is coping as positively as they can, is likely important. The evidence shows that this relationship helps support children’s resilience and wellbeing when they adapt to big changes, whatever they are.
