We had our first Parenting with ACEs Group chat a few weeks ago. The full chat transcript is saved online. The topic was talking about tough topics with kids. I can't not think about the tragic world news . As we drove to school I asked my teen if she'd heard about the bombing at the Ariana Grande concert. We'd only been up for an hour.
