Children who are exposed to violent or traumatic events can have a range of reactions. Many children will become afraid, preferring to stay at home or close to their parents. They also may begin to struggle in school, or have trouble sleeping or eating. Other children may learn to resolve their own conflicts in violent ways. Parents should be mindful about the ways in which children may be exposed to violence, including in the media and online apps their children consume and even in their own homes.
