Comment on I don't have any kids or anything but want some one day. I grew up under the fog of 9/11. How do you go about explaining terrorism and evil to young kids without storybooking it?

I have nothing to take away from that, I have one that’s six and this is basically my approach so far.

One thing I’ve learned to do is to demonstrate what to do when I don’t know something. If I don’t know a certain fact, I’ll go to Wikipedia on the spot and see if it’s there.

I’m also not perfect, but I’m a big fan of it and I support it with donations so yeah. Least I can do is provide an example that doesn’t involve an AI overview.

Yeah there’s a poster in the clinic we go to for the kids vaccinations that says “kids learn what they live”.

So yeah, 100% they’re going to see that I don’t know everything and that I try to figure things out.
