Here's a tip: If you get laid off from your job, don't leave your severance agreement on the kitchen table where your children are likely to find it.
You're likely to hear a little voice scream out, "Mom, you got fired?" You'll be forced to explain there is a major difference between being fired and being laid off -- the latter the consequence of a recession in which companies are scaling back by shedding salaried employees.
Losing a job is something all of us face in this economy. The question is, what do you tell the kids?
