RE: The Momo Challenge. Parents, be informed.
Hopefully with awareness, something can be done
Just generally, I always talk about peer pressure to the kids and hope it makes sense
Even when my girl was watching 13 reasons why, I explained how precious life is and there's nothing that's so bad that you need to end it... that was a long one over many days, subtle (I hope hahaha) so it doesn't sound like a lecture.
It is hard to make it not sound like a lecture or like the kids are being interrogated. There are so many questions I want to ask my kids that I can be more informed in their life when they are away at school. The don't tell me much. I was hoping it would be natural for them to talk about things but they don't. I feel like I am lacking skills when it comes to that.
I have never seen 13 Reasons Why. But by the sounds of it, you did a good job explaining what needed to be said ina great manner. Good job mama!
I think it is also partly them
The girl loves regaling me with everything and anything
She even tells me of her friends s*x adventures... and I can tell you in my head I'm like freaking out but I try to keep my cool so she doesn't get scared and never open up to me ever again hahaha
The boys most times keep things to themselves... and once in a blue moon might blurt out something...
13 reasons why is about this girl committing suicide and leaving tapes to explain why she did it
And many parents were concerned it romanticised suicide...
I have my days, and then there are days I know I could have done a better job
I'm sure we all go through that :D
Ya my son keeps a lot to himself and so does my husband. They are the same in those ways. My daughter does say a few things but tends to leave out some certain things she does. It's funny sometimes.
Oh that movie/show seems rough. I bet many emotions surfaced from that.
We all do go through that wave of uncertainty. We do as we can :)
