[quote=Anonymous]I found this advice helpful https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2016/11/09/how-to-explain-the-election-trump-and-your-fears-without-panicking-the-kids/ Griffin also said that parents need not excuse or minimize behavior or remarks by Trump that don't conform to their value system but could instead explain that how there's a “system of checks and balances” in the country so that the government is more than a single person. “It's impossible to shield most kids from this, but you should marshal the reserves to normalize the situation,” he said. Explain that we’ve been through many many difficult things in the history of this country “and we’ll get through this one.”[/quote]
