How do I tell my family about the layoff? after 6 years as an IT help-desk technician

I have been leaving the house at the same time each day so my kids do not notice. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. What did you say?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 3 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
