Counselor Chat Podcast - Difficult Conversations
from The Émission Hosted by The École NYC
Today, we’re talking about difficult conversations. From the very beginning of life, children are exposed to language and information. However, there is often a gap between what a child hears and what they truly understand especially when it comes to more complex or sensitive topics. Conversations about things like death, illness, disease, or war can feel overwhelming for both children and adults. These are not easy topics, but they are important ones. Today, we’re focusing on how to start these conversations with your child in a way that feels supportive, thoughtful, and age-appropriate.
