Has the Recession Affected You?

The current recession has affected people in many ways.  Many have lost jobs, affecting them both financially and emotionally.  Even for those who are very diligent, looking for a new position,  after several months of unemployment, depression and anger frequently ensue.  These emotions have ramifications for relationships.  Some people deal with this by drinking more.

The housing market has affected people also.  Couples with expanding families find that they are temporarily stuck in tight quarters.  Divorcing couples are in a bind about selling their property.  For those facing foreclosure or bankrupcy, the affects are devasting.

The list goes on and on.  Schools for the children frequently have to be changed.  Summer camps and summer vacations have to be curtailed in some instances.

How has the recession affected you and your family?
