Christmas can be a happy time for many people.
But Christmas can also be a hard time for some people.
All feelings are okay. You are not alone. It is okay to ask for help or to take things slowly.
We hope you can be kind to yourself and do what feels right for you.
We are thinking of you this Christmas and wish you a happy new year.
Your friends at Positive Powerful Parents.
