Solid advice for helping kids through a difficult time.

The Tragedy in Tumbler Ridge is in the news and kids have questions about what happened. Kids don’t need every detail. They need stability, calm voices, and the sense that the adults around them are paying attention. A simple “How are you feeling about what you heard today?” goes a long way. Their mental health starts with knowing they’re not alone and not expected to carry this silently. Keep your language age-appropriate. Let them ask questions, and if you don’t know an answer, it’s okay to say so. Limit doom-scrolling, shut off autoplay news, and remind them their school works hard to keep them safe. Your presence , even five grounded minutes, makes a difference. Take care of yourselves today too. Supporting kids starts with steady adults. If you need to talk with someone, reach out. Community is how we get through days like this, together.
