Daily Coronavirus Check-in: Working parents in Melbourne react to second shutdown

As you all know, my little family spent a month down in Victoria with my parents at the start of the first lockdown period to have some support with homeschooling and working from home. Now they’re going through it all over again as a second wave of Covid sweeps through Melbourne. All my family are down there and so many friends, who are all really struggling to process another six weeks in isolation. As I sit here in Sydney, still able to go down to the shops, send my kids to care, and catch up with friends, I can only imagine the emotions they’re all going through down south. So, I reached out to a bunch of working parents in Melbourne to find out exactly how they’re feeling.
