Children and Current Events
Our hearts are breaking for the families in Uvalde, Texas. The trauma and grief in the wake of the recent horrific attack are reverberating across the country and into our hearts and homes. In the coming days, your children may overhear news coverage, hear others discussing the tragedy or sense that something scary is happening in the world.
We wanted to share some resources and guidance to help you help your children process their questions and feelings.
