How do I tell my family about the layoff?, customer-service rep here

My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as a customer-service rep. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. What did you say?

Do not wait until a bill surprises them. The longer it goes, the harder it gets.

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