Here are five steps parents can take to help children navigate news about refugees, gunfire and talk of a nuclear attack.
1. Initiate the conversation.
Schonfeld, who recently published an article for the American Academy of Pediatrics on this subject, recommends starting the conversation as soon as children are old enough to talk. Added Dr. Micki Burns, a licensed psychologist and chief clinical officer at Judi’s House, an organization that provides grief counseling for children and families: “Come into that conversation and allow your child to drive the direction that it goes in… and allow them to teach us what's going to be most helpful to them."
If you notice concerning changes in your child’s behavior, talk to their pediatrician as they can often help explore these behaviors and connect your child to mental health providers."The first thing for all parents in all situations is to make sure that you're taking care of yourself. I know it's such a cliché but … put the oxygen mask on yourself first before you go to help your children,” said Burns.
