There is some REALLY tough stuff going on in our world right now. And we're all trying to figure out how navigate tough conversations about it--internally, online, with friends and family. In this episode, we don't get into the nitty gritty of geopolitics. Instead, we try to broadly grapple with questions like:

How do we talk to kids about tragedies?

How much should I shield my kids from hard things to preserve their innocence?

What's the best way to break bad news to children--divorce, death of a grandparent, parent getting sick, etc...?

Is it ok for my kids to see me be sad?

As always, we finish with a generous dose of encouragement for parenting in this challenging time.
