## Step 8 - Task

In this section we have looked at family celebrations and a condition called hypercopresence.
Hypercopresence is a fancy name for this condition: when people are in each other’s pockets, 24/7, and feel they can’t get away from one another. It’s like a large dose of family, all at once…
Family relationships inevitably take a hit when family members spend an extended period of time in close proximity with one another, such as family holidays or annual celebrations like Christmas.
The lockdown in 2020 due to coronavirus has also brought a host of new pressures and challenges to our everyday family life. How about you? How has Corona effected your life until now?
