- Title
Talking with children about current events after a year of difficult news.

- Abstract
On the topic of helping children to process difficult news, unfortunately, this has become an ongoing issue after the events of 2020. News that is difficult for children to hear has permeated daily life. I often wonder how therapists working with adult clients in individual treatment avoid allowing their own opinions to creep into sessions, especially with the political divides that are so much a part of the daily news. This is less of an issue in working with families and children, and at the same time this year we have often been called to think about how to help children process some of the frightening and disturbing images and concepts they have witnessed, with the recent unrest at the Capitol the latest of these.
