My wife has been really struggling with the lockdown and feeling alone and has a lot of anxiety. We are in California, where we have been asked to stay home with family only (I am still going to work, though in a limited capacity). One of her best friends offered to come over with her kids (same ages, all 6 and under) and be her play date buddy throughout the process. Our biggest concern is that her husband is an ICU nurse and is likely exposed to a lot of things. It would be a big emotional boost for her. I am also confident that my wife could make it through the lockdown on her own without any big mental health problems, but would definitely have some really hard days.

What do you think? Should we have her friend over?
