[quote=Anonymous]Haven't told my 8 y.o DD yet. She has not mentioned anything about it -- we've kept the newspaper and any relevant tv channels away from her. But she did go online yesterday afternoon before I got home and I didn't remember to tell our au pair that our homepage would have a screaming headline about this. But still no mention and she seems totally happy and normal today. I'm sitting tight and waiting to see what comes up in conversation Monday after school. At that point I may ask if any of the kids were talking about anything interesting at school. As upset as I am, I don't see any need to burden her with it unless she has independent knowledge of it. As PP said, I may be naive but it's possible that by Monday it may not be a major topic of conversation among the second-grade set.[/quote]
