Hiding a layoff from the family, bad idea?

    I was laid off 19 weeks ago and have not told my family because I do not want them to worry. Any experience at all would help. I want a plan before I speak. What did you say?

    Kids often pick up more than you think. A short, calm explanation helped mine feel secure.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
