I heard them say “Trump is stupid” and they were clearly copying their parents. But then we also talked about Ukraine and who has to go to war and they were genuinely worried that they or their dads or big brothers will have to go too. Kids crave these conversations, it gives them so many opportunities to learn about society and values. Give them real answers, don’t shut them out.
(Sorry I tend to talk about kids like this hive mind fluttering around me; of course each is individual)
