Conversations with Aldershot

13 12 It’s been a nightmare. Had baby in middle of April, was basically left on your own no support. Very stressful trying to bring up a new born on your own while your other kids are home always saying I’m bored can we do something or go somewhere. They just kids and dont really understand the whole pandemic. They know it’s a nasty virus killing people. Anon, 2020 A rollar coaster of emotions. Fear, worry, Joy, laughter, To be honest I absolutely loved having my children home with me for such a long time we really bonded as a family. My partner was made redundant during this time which was stressful and worrying at the time but he found another job so worked out in the end.
