I think how i would approach it would be to just emphasize that some people do bad things sometimes that hurt other people, even though they might think it's right when it's actually wrong. Also I'd like to stress the fact that two wrongs don't make a right...how to go about doing that is the real question.<br /><br />Good luck!

Because of the different types of media we have now- the terrible events are so overwhelming that i really think we should be careful how much negative media we let into into our day.<br />In SA we tend to only get the bad, horrible news and not the good that is also out there.<br />On the other hand, we do need to discuss these things with our children.<br />Is she feeling better today?<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421350000414312139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-88542403216897662042013-04-17T19:08:28.300+02:002013-04-17T19:08:28.300+02:00Sjoe.

I myself am struggling to make sense of the Boston bombings, such a senseless tragedy.<br /><br />And as for the C versus A team - perhaps this is where she needs to focus on hockey rather? she loved the clinic didn't she? Perhaps this is your out for her! sterkte my friend xx<br />Shaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05969559339071515618noreply@blogger.com
