Hi, I’m Meredith Masony from That’s Inappropriate. How can I help?

There is no fancy, definitive guide, but here is the honest one from this house:

  1. Lower the bar: School at home will be messy. Screens will happen. That is fine.
  2. Prioritize mental health over math worksheets
  3. Create tiny pockets of alone time (yes, hiding in the bathroom counts)
  4. Keep routines “ish,” not perfect
  5. Laugh at the chaos whenever possible

What’s been the hardest part of pandemic parenting for you so far?
