Do you find yourself taking a step back every time you need to talk to your kids about something important? I always feel – aren’t they too young for it? Do we need to expose them to everything?
We always like to protect them from disturbing topics. Because we do not wish to let them know about the bad in the world. However, we’ve got to understand that kids of this generation are way more mature. (Come on, they’ve survived a pandemic!) Through their exposure to so many things in the world because of the internet, they know much more at a young age, than we ever did.
Still, Shouldn’t We Filter Some Parts?
Actress Sonali Bendre would say differently. In this video, she shares how she explained her cancer to her 12-year-old son! Seeing a parent unwell is devastating for any child no matter the age and this is how the family dealt with it.
Sonali Bendre fought through cancer with her family by her side. She is a great role model when it comes to being transparent with her 12-year-old.
Kudos to them!
