Parenting and talking with children during political unrest

As we all know, children are exceptionally perceptive and sensitive to the world around them. They can sense the changes in the atmosphere, whether it’s through news, conversations, or even the emotions of their caregivers. It’s during these moments of crisis and unrest that the power of our communication with them truly shines. It’s a time when we have the opportunity to nurture their understanding, resilience, and, most importantly, their emotional well-being.
Throughout this session, we will explore various strategies and insights to help you navigate the delicate balance between shielding your children from distressing information and empowering them with the knowledge and emotional tools to cope with these challenging times. We will also discuss the importance of creating an open and safe space for your children to express their thoughts, fears, and questions.
By the end of this discussion, we hope to equip you with practical guidance and the confidence needed to foster a supportive environment for your children, enabling them to not only weather the storms of life but also grow stronger in the process.
