I copy and pasted what he wrote onto this blogpost, but you can read more about his blogs on family at http:/ www.vvccfamilies.com. I am not a psychologist or a counselor, but here are some thoughts on talking to our kids about this horrible tragedy:. 1) Get the facts correct. 3) Avoid saying things like "that *%# * * deserves to go to hell".
