Talking to your children about violence

When school shootings or other crimes of violence occur, it can be difficult to comprehend. Many people talk about it with others to try to make sense of it, or to try to cope with their own shock and grief. But what do you say if your children ask about or hear about it from someone else? How much do you tell them? How do you address their own safety concerns?
