What should I tell my child about terrorism?

Less is More

Even though we may try to protect young children from the effects of terrorism by limiting their exposure to the media, they still can "sense" the tension in others. Still, it is best to say "less" than "more" to very young children about what is happening. It is better to just assure them that they are safe.
