[quote=Anonymous]As the mom of a seven year old I have discussed the events of 9/11 with her for the last couple of years and don’t really find what your mom shared to be out of line or age inappropriate. Not really sure of a less “blunt” way of explaining the events? ( I’m assuming she didn’t go into the more gruesome details of people jumping from the towers etc). Yeah- I can see wanting to be the first one to discuss it with her, but especially with this being the 20th anniversary you had to assume she’d be exposed to it elsewhere. I know my daughter’s class discussed it in school for example. You might also consider that while still raw for many of us, to kids of her age 9/11 is a historical event….more akin us learning about the attack on Pearl Harbor in school, etc.[/quote]
