Kids hear everything..my husband and i have a rule to not talk about the violence when our kiddos are around. Just make sure to remind him he’s safe with you! 0 LikesKathy posted June 2, 2020

He’s too young at this stage to understand anything more than he is safe with you and has nothing to worry about. 1 LikeRegina posted June 16, 2020

I meant to say that kids are like sponges, they absorb everything. My friend who is a librarian suggests getting a few book to explain why people are protesting and the basics of being anti-racist and welcoming diversity. Kids will welcome you talking to them honestly, Ina n age appropriate way about serious topics. Fear feeds on ignorance. 1 Like
