A Fire in the Cold and the Dark: Talking with the Children about Uvalde

First, an announcement: I’m turning paid subscriptions back on. I turned them off in December, as I grew increasingly despairing about my ability to write. As you may have noticed, I’m writing more regularly. For those of you who have so kindly supported this Substack, you’ll continue to have the opportunity to do so. If you were subscribed before, your subscription will automatically resume. If you’d like to not be charged, please feel free to cancel – I promise I won’t take it personally!
Why would you encourage your kid to pay attention to this stuff? It’s much less likely to affect them than any number of more ordinary things. I told my kid that the media sells fear and upset like McDonalds sells hamburgers and to ignore it and pay attention to his own life
Great to see you back!
