How is it affected by lockdown?
Taha whānau can be affected in multiple ways in lockdown. You become closer with family as you are always with them making a strong connection between you and them. Being closed off in your house also can distance you from your friends, and relatives. During lockdown you can talk to people by phone closing off the distance in your relationship with others.
How can you support your relationships with others?
Even if you have family overseas or other friends locked in their house you can support your connection with them by texting or calling each other. Don’t get too busy talking to others by phone because you still have your family.
