In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, "Facing the Dark," Dr. Kathy addresses the troubling rise of violence and graphic content on social media, particularly recently in how kids have experienced reporting of the Charlie Kirk assassination. She emphasizes the importance of guiding children to process tragedy in how we're smart, and then to seek God's call on their lives in the face of tragedy. Dr. Kathy and Wayne engage this topic in response to a listener's inquiry about how to discuss the impact of such events with their kids, highlighting the need for open communication and spiritual guidance. The episode encourages both parents and children to ask the question, "God, what would you have me do?" as a way to process grief and violence in today's digital landscape.
