In a recent interview with The Sun, Caroline Korah, the Head of Children and Partner at Vardags, shed light on the reasons behind a ‘Separation spike’ after the school holidays. She highlighted that many parents seek advice from their firm following the school break, which is often attributed to increased  “Arguments due to spending more time together, disputed over parenting styles and an unequal division of looking after the children.”

One such suggestion is for both parents to actively participate in planning days off work and seeking outside help when needed. By sharing the responsibilities and ensuring a fair distribution of childcare duties, parents can alleviate potential tensions and create a more harmonious environment.

Furthermore, the article emphasizes the importance of taking frequent breaks from one another to prevent irritability and conflicts that may have been masked by the routines of everyday life.
