The holidays are supposed to be a season of joy and connection, but for many parents, this time of year can feel overwhelming.Between shopping, decorating, and managing expectations, it’s easy to lose sight of what really matters.According to sesamecare.com, 62% of Americans consider themselves moderately to extremely stressed going into this holiday season.This can lead to mental, physical, and emotional exhaustion impacting the entire family.
So how can parents avoid burnout while still creating meaningful memories for their families?She says the key is setting boundaries and realistic expectations.“Write things down. If it’s not on the calendar at the end of November, it shouldn’t happen in December. Your kids are not going to remember every single thing they didn't know you didn't do — they don't know. So have it be fun. Be present with them,' said Duffy.
