Jen Sherman and her son, Gavin, 14, are sheltering in place at their West Hartford home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Gavin is a special education eighth-grader at King Philip Middle School and is now doing distance learning at home. His mom is working from home putting in about sixty hours a week, struggling to work and help Gavin at the same time. “Gavin needs routine and structure,” said Jen Sherman. “Its going bonkers for me,” said Gavin. “I’m at home for four weeks now and can’t see my friends.” Credit: Cloe Poisson / CTMirror.org
