My husband and I call toxic relationship - emotional vampires, to be aware of people who drain our energy.
Tracey O'Neal

try not to share emotions with them and recognize expectations.

There’s an assisted living home in Durham that is also a daycare! (Not sure what COVID has looked like)
Michelle Peedin

I know folks who are single mothers who have decided to co-parent their children together. Why not get creative with our family structures?

I’m trying to think of how to adapt/make fun/special the holidays coming up for kids in my life: halloween / thanksgiving
Kylie Foley (IEI)
48:01
Okay if a pastor says FUNERALS don’t come before 5:00, that’s a boundary-setting hero
Elizabeth Baker
49:53
Giving roles/responsibilities to participate
Jessica Stokes

lol Nadia!
Kylie Foley (IEI)
52:46
Celebrate birthdays/ half birthdays! Random holidays “doughnut day” etc.
Kylie Foley (IEI)
52:59
Maybe I’m projecting (I need a caring adult to bring me doughnuts)
Grace Thompson
53:21
@kylie lolol
Grace Thompson
54:05
I love celebrations!!! great idea
Ellen Beasley
54:11
Half birthdays are my favorite especially this year since I could celebrate it since places were open and my birthday was when everything was shut down
Tondrea Leach
54:14
I like the random holidays. Doughnut day is great.
Jessica Stokes
54:15
yes, we are celebrating the children in our family even more than usual, such their half-birthday to help break up the hard
Kylie Foley (IEI)
54:51
Texting!
Elizabeth Baker

Facebook, emails, and text
Tracey O'Neal

Rosa Bolden

We use Zoom to do Bible Study, Leadership Calls and to connect with our children at church. I use Duo to take to my family members
Kylie Foley (IEI)

The older folks in my church LOVE letters
Ellen Beasley

Social distanced outdoor walks
Kylie Foley (IEI)
01:00:15
Having congregations posting members of their kids/congregants! People miss seeing each other. Love it
Tondrea Leach
01:01:19
My brother is a pastor in SC and he has been doing a daily devotion every day since COVID began, except Sundays on his church Facebook. They have an ongoing prayer list. I have enjoyed watching daily and if I get behind for any reason, I can go back and watch. He is reaching people all over which is wonderful as he has a small country church.
Tondrea Leach
01:01:57
The youth in the church does small goody baskets randomly dropping off to people in their community.
Kylie Foley (IEI)
01:02:07
I’m so so sorry, Grace
Rosa Bolden
01:02:09
WE were doing a Zoom with the children, but it dwindled down.
Kylie Foley (IEI)
01:02:31
^ Rosa we’ve heard that over and over. Attendance is very low for many church/community activities
Tondrea Leach
01:03:04
At PEERS we post videos on our Facebook of activities of what parents can do with their children.
Tondrea Leach
01:04:23
At our church, we did baptism on Facebook.
Kylie Foley (IEI)
01:07:27
Provide options- it’s easier to pick from what help looks like than think of what that means
Kylie Foley (IEI)
01:07:44
“Parents, we have these three ways to help” verses “how can we help you”
Tracey O'Neal
01:07:59
say it and model it! When you are okay with being vulnerable and asking for help, it makes it easier for others to as well
Mikael Broadway
01:08:26
I have observed congregations which have created drop-off bags activities for children who then are invited to their own online “class” designed particularly for them to share about their lives and interact with one another and caring adults.
