I know nothing about child psychology/early childhood development but at that age are kids really processing this kind of information that quickly? I worry that there has been damage done that will not surface immediately.
That is not to criticize the parents at all--they themselves are trying to process. But I'm just wondering if it will take some time to have an effect on these kids?

True - children can sense when something is wrong. They may not know the nuances but they get it. But please, PLEASE let these children and teachers receive the counseling they need to process this.
OAN... I really dislike the coverage about the shooter. I won't go into details but... it really rubs me the wrong way.
