In the wake of the double tragedies, many parents are left grappling with how to explain such incomprehensible violence to their children. Here's how to talk to kids about the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton:
Back to back mass shootings, hundreds of miles apart -- first in El Paso, Texas, and then less than 15 hours later in Dayton, Ohio -- left at least 29 people dead this weekend, and a nation mourning yet another senseless act of violence while still processing the first.
In the wake of the double tragedies, many parents are left grappling with how to explain such incomprehensible violence to their children. Ways to spot if your child may be feeling stressed, anxious or angry about the events that unfolded are if you notice changes in their behavior, apprehensiveness about things they normally do, fear about what could happen in safe places such as schools, churches or the mall, or changes in appetite or sleep patterns, according to Taylor.
Families are where children learn how to heal, and it's important to give them a safe space to experience everything they might be feeling.
