Oh, the holidays! It can be so stressful. I have been working on arranging visits for all my thirteens clients. Many of them come from broken homes and some have contact with both parents, needing more than one visit scheduled, so right now I'm looking at arranging around sixteen visits. All but about five of these visitations will need means of transportation provided in order for them to happen. Lots of safety plans have to be set in place, which means lots of meetings where I have to tell parents how to . . . parent. For example, "Mr. and Mrs. Lame Parent, its important that you not allow your child to look at pornography while on visitation." DUH! But you wouldn't believe how many looks of surprise we get when we tell parents those types of things! So anyway, I've got my hands full right now, and I have people all around me freaking out about all the little issues that pop up when dealing with this stuff. But the thing is, I'm the one taking care of it, not them, and I'm two steps ahead of the game, but it's hard to focus when I have a mob of people spazzing out around me. So just chill, I have this under control . . . I think.
