Totally agree with that!!! I never tried to hide things from my kids, I just used "kid-appropriate" ways to explain what was going on. If you hide things or lie to them, they will only learn that they can't trust you, and they'll go find someone else to ask!
I don’t know… I mean I get it… but one of the things I look back and loved about being a kid was that I never had to know what was going on in the world, and there was a lot! But we got to be a kids and not think about those things until we were older teens.
I get it. But that’s something they may/do face in school. I’m talking g about all this stress and hate and violence and politics in general. We have such a short time to be innocent these days. We need to allow them that.
There’s real truth in that. Childhood should be a refuge, not a front-row seat to chaos. Letting kids just be kids is something we’ve lost, and need to protect.
Thank you so much for having me on! Here’s the piece I wrote about Rogansphere comedians. https://open.substack.com/pub/wkamaubell/p/comedians-are-stupid-people-too?r=2jzu65&utm_medium=ios
BOOKMARKED!

"If Dad didn't tell us, then, why not? It feels scary"
Tell them the lot, what they don't understand at this stage of their life will slip by them until they learn more - and that's alright too. :)

My mom understood that if I didn’t learn about racism until I was in my later teens that I wouldn’t have made it to my later teens.

My kids have a great life while also understanding the world and how America sees them. Take care.
I understand. I get it. And I’m sure they are very happy.
