Help! My children start their summer break

This article is dedicated to all the parents and/or caregivers who have to reconcile work with their children's summer or winter break. Children look forward to their well-deserved rest. As parents, however, we can experience a lot of stress because we love our children and we want them to reset and have fun but we may not have as much energy or free time to be with them. We may feel overwhelmed when we see that our children don’t have much to do, or when they feel bored, or when they’re plugged into technology, and lack a routine. Not surprisingly when faced with this scenario, many parents keep their children busy with summer or winter camps, vacation schools, or an array of different pastimes. It is not bad if your children enjoy that, but what happens when they don’t? What happens when they feel tired after the school year and they want to feel more relaxed and obligations free?
