๐ R U OK? Day ๐
Today is a reminder to check in with the people we love, our children, our family, our friends and ourselves.
As parents and carers, we spend so much time looking after everyone else that it can be easy to forget to check in with ourselves. Life can be busy, overwhelming and challenging, and itโs OK to admit when weโre not OK.
Our children also look to the adults around them for guidance. By talking openly about our feelings, asking for help when we need it and showing kindness to ourselves and others, we help create a safe environment where our children know that talking about how they feel is important.
So today, take a moment to ask someone โAre you OK?โ- and donโt forget to ask yourself the same question. ๐
Sometimes a conversation, a listening ear or simply knowing someone cares can make all the difference.
R U OK? Every day is a good day to ask.
