Shielding Young Children

How can we talk to our kids about senseless acts of violence in a way that doesn't frighten unnecessarily, everyone involved? We want to start with shielding young children who are in the lower elementary grades and and sharing more facts with children. Your children under the age of ten can be frightened by headlines about school shootings or disturbing images related to this story or the war in eukrane. Kids are naturally curious, and they'll read whatever's left arounde pers, magazines, even emales that perhaps are sitting on your on your computer.
