Mary Dell Harrington joins me on the Family Brain to talk about the impact of Covid 19 on young adults and their families. Graduations are being held online, proms are cancelled, and life as we know it has changed drastically. Mary Dell’s Facebook community of Grown and Flown is an online place for parents to come together around the specific gifts and challenges of older “grown and flown” children, many of whom are coming back to the nest during this time of the pandemic. Check out the book Grown and Flown https://grownandflown.com/book/ Mary Dell talks about how she is managing her quarantine with her husband, pup, and grown children. Enjoying the unexpected time together while also processing all the changes and adjustments happening. We talk about how parents are noticing that kids are missing their friends, but that kids are enjoying the slowing down from all the activities. Mary Dell suggests that perhaps we are at a tipping point where we reexamine how we structure our lives. We discuss the financial impact of this crisis on college aged kids and how that will change our summers. “If we treat our kids as the responsible people that they are they tend to respond as responsible people.” Mary Dell Harrington Sonya Renee Taylor says: “We will not go back to normal. Normal never was. Our pre-corona existence was not normal other than we normalized greed, inequity, exhaustion, depletion, extraction, disconnection, confusion, rage, hoarding, hate, and lack. We should not long to return, my friends. We are being given the opportunity to stitch a new garment. One that fits all of humanity and nature.” Thanks to Other World Computing for sponsoring this Coping with Covid 19 series.
