How do I tell my family about the layoff?, office manager here

My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as an office manager. Any experience at all would help. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet.

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

I told my partner the same evening with a simple plan: what happened, what I was doing and what I needed. It was a relief.
