Dealing with the news - helping our kids deal with news of shocking events

Sadly, news of heart-breaking events such as school shootings or terrorist actions comes, and even if we are on the other side of the globe, we can't hide it from our kids.  How do we deal with these traumatic stories?  Should we tell our kids?  And if so, how?  Here, Jennie Linton and I talk about these very tough questions.  This episode is also shared on thebigpurpleblob.com.
