HELP! Even positive changes can be stressful. And a lot
of small changes can add up to a big effect. Make
a list of changes that might not seem like a big
deal but could turn out to have a major effect on
someone.

Even life changes that you’ve expected and planned for can be harder to adjust to than you expect. Changes in role, like becoming a parent or retiring, usually affect important areas of your life, such as:

-where you live

-how you define yourself

-your goals in life

-people’s expectations of you

-your beliefs

-who you have around to support you.

-The difficulty, challenges and conflict that come along with these life changes can contribute to depression and anxiety.

Explanation:

Keep in mind that a major change for one person can affect the whole whānau. For example, having a baby (pēpi) doesn’t just involve new roles and responsibilities for the parents. It can also bring about changes for the whole whānau, including brothers and sisters, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. These changes require some adjustment by everyone.

claim 2: "wherefore, since nothing but blows will do, for god’s sake, let us come to a final separation, and not leave the next generation to be cutting throats, under the violated unmeaning names of parent and child."
