IN REPLY TO: America being Attacked
AUTHOR: MLWS
I don't know what grade your son is in (maybe 9th like me?) but I went to school the day after the inicident and was perfectly fine. Well, we watched the news and we got to talk to teachers about what happened, but I think the best thing for you to do is send your son to school. One, it establishes normalcy in his life, something that he needs. I know I needed that after I heard what happened. Two, he doesn't need to stay home either. He might see you cry, then be upset by that, and anyway, he misses out on valuable school time and will have to make up that work. Also, at school he will get to talk to his peers and see how they are dealing with this tragedy. I hope this helps!
