================================ SPOTLIGHT ON CAREGIVING ================================ A free electronic newsletter from the publisher of Caregiving.com, a free online support service. Vol. 5, No. 13 ************************************************* Holiday Survival Guide Ho, Ho, Ho. It's the holidays, a time that should be for loving family traditions but often becomes the catalyst for tension-filled family rifts. In this special section, we'll offer practical tips to help survive the holidays, including those unpleasant run-ins with sometimes well-meaning, but always out-spoken, family members. We'll talk about ways you can prevent these emotionally-exhausting encounters, as well as ways to deal with situations when you get side-swiped. And, we'll offer tips on handling the Holiday MeltDown. So, during the holiday season, you'll have a chance to rest your caregiving hat--even if it's for a few minutes.
