Some families regularly discuss current events, while some families prefer not to. However, in some cases, current events spill over into the everyday lives of our children, and they encounter discussion of current events among their peers. What they hear from friends and classmates may be partial truths, misunderstandings, confusing, and even scary.
In these cases, it is best if children have an opportunity to discuss such events with their parents in a safe, neutral, age-appropriate manner. Below you will find some resources that can help you and your family discuss and process the unfolding events of the past several days.
