Hi all,
Thanks for the interesting thread! I’ll add in an anecdote from my family. I second the feelings stated by others that we are very lucky that our kids are young (2 and 4) and don’t seem to have too many worries. But, my just about 5-year-old is ‘concerned,’ and even mad, about the invisibleness of ‘the germs.’ He often says he wishes they were just bigger so that he could see them and do something about them (i.e. fight them because he is a ninja). This makes me wonder about invisible versus visible fears, do children worry about them in the same or different ways?
When Covid was newer and we had more news on the TV and radio in the house, he also started asking many more questions about death, e.g. ‘How do people die?’ even though we hadn’t explicitly talked to him about the virus causing people to die. I think we need to be aware of the multitude of sources children are learning from due to the impact of the pandemic, and perhaps a greater media presence for some.
Stay well,
Jocelyn
