Those of you in the US (particularly those with students school-going age), do you in any way discuss the events of September 11, 2001, with your children?
Re: September 11th
The girls had an assembly at school on Friday for 9/11. So my older one came home and told me that they were told about planes crashing into buildings that killed many people. That's pretty much it. She asked me who did it...I said some bad people. And we moved on.I guess older kids may have more questions.
Re: September 11th
I strongly advise that you tell the official version of events, no matter what you believe yourself.
Re: September 11th
I agree. No matter how many conspiracy theories we may believe in, we should stick to the official story.
Re: September 11th
When you say "official story" what do you mean? Just the basics of the events?
Re: September 11th
Yes. That some terrorists flew planes into buildings.

Yes. That some terrorists flew planes into buildings.
That reminds me, once my little cousin kept asking her mom what "terists" were :p
So (as you said earlier), lets stick to "bad guys"
