Description
You might think you're protecting them from hard truths... yet your children already know something is wrong.
They're watching.
They're listening.
They're filling in the blanks.
The question isn't whether they'll notice.
It's whether they'll have a safe adult to help them make sense of what they're seeing.
Children don't need every detail about the hardships your family might be facing (whatever those may be). They need honesty they can carry.
