Thanksgiving weekend can be a great weekend to connect with family, and it can also be stressful too, even on our kids.
Part of that, explains EarlyON’s Jane Paul, is teaching them that its okay to feel uncomfortable, and express that they are.
It’s important to give them their personal space too, she stresses, so don’t force them to hug relatives that they barely know.
She adds we have to keep their needs in mind.
Paul also says this is a great time of year to talk about gratitude, and the positive feelings that can produce.
Paul notes it’s about being thankful for the big things, and the little ones, and expressing it.
