[quote=Anonymous]In my DDs school the administration sent home info about drill with language they use to talk about drill to students. You should ask for that and be consistent. My kid was scared about drill, gave her nightmares. They told her they had to hide from a "stranger" - but one of the teachers was pretending to be the stranger and knocked on the door while they hid. One thing I did tell my kid in addition to school material was that grownups also do these types of drill at work. She was comforted that I did it, too. For those saying that your kid isn't upset - I am happy for you, truly. But some kids do get scared, so it is normal to want to figure out a way to help kids deal with it![/quote]
