Family time at Christmas
Being apart from parents and other family members can hit even harder at Christmas. Equally, a cared for child may also feel apprehensive about seeing family. All of these emotions can be hard to handle so you need to be prepared for potential tricky moments. Make sure you try not to put too much pressure on yourself, you build some time out for yourself into your plans and you have friends and family as well as experienced social workers on-hand should you need a little extra support.
