How do you talk to your children about tragedy when the world feels more divided than ever? They don't need you to have all the answers; they need you to be their safe place. Today, I'll show you how.

When tragedy strikes, like the recent shooting of Charlie Kirk and other violent acts, it can feel impossible to know what to say to your kids. Do you protect them? Do you explain everything? Or do you simply sit and listen?

In this episode, parenting/family expert Connie Albers shares how to guide your children through hard news without letting fear take root. Drawing from her own experience walking her children through 9/11, Connie offers parents practical steps to help kids feel safe, heal from fear, and anchor their hearts in the hope found in Scripture.

You'll learn how to:

• Reassure your children even when you don't have all the answers
• Listen in ways that bring dealing and build trust
• Navigate the impact of social media on your kids' emotions
• Point your family toward faith, hope, and resilience

Your children don't need perfect answers when tragedies hit close to home. They need YOU.

Tune in to this show for helpful tips that you can use right now and in the future.
