How do I tell my family about the layoff? - first time posting

    I have been leaving the house at the same time each day so my kids do not notice. There are 3 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team.

    Shame is common after a layoff even when it is not your fault. Saying it out loud to one person first helped me.

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