He returned to the line in a good mood. We drank tea with the cake, the son went into the room, and I cleaned the dishes and suddenly I heard a strange sound – motherhood in General, sharpens the hearing. My new fifth-grader lay under a blanket with his head, and wept.
it Turned out that in homeroom they showed a film about Beslan in memory of the anniversary. Images from the news, interviews with relatives of the victims. One girl in the lesson was bad, the other two clamped hands over her ears and closed her eyes. In the end, the show stopped in the middle, teacher OBZH, he is the initiator of the safe, said some common words and sent everybody home. Parent chat exploded with messages. Someone's mom already made a letter to the Commissioner for the rights of the child and demanded the dismissal of the Director. Someone's dad was trying to convince everyone that children must know how bad it happens to others.
he stormed. Someone promised to negotiate with a good psychologist who will come and tell you all over again – with all the right words, according to the age data.

Son still sobbed, and I decided, instead of waiting for a good psychologist to talk to him myself. But I thought that first you need to read something about those events, figures, news analysis of RAID, and then monologues witnesses.
After the story about the mother who came on the line with her two daughters, and came out with only one, I cried excitedly. There, in this nightmare, on the second day of capture mom babies decided to let go. And a woman named Aneta asked that the baby came out, the daughter-the schoolgirl, but she was not allowed. The eldest daughter died. And it's a very scary thought – the idea that you can't save the child even at the cost of his own life.
I not undertake to judge whether carried out the assault, but I think that those strong, clever men felt the same helplessness: without sacrifice in any case have not done.
And we want to protect children. In a normal, peaceful life.
Learn to swim – not to drown if you go with friends on the river.
Learn to run – will be saved from the evil dog.
don't go to the wasteland. Don't open the door to strangers. Cross the road on a green light. Give me a call if will go later, I'll meet you.
don't go to school on line? Do not lose your mind if you don't want to get you killed? Don't ask for water, so as not to anger the suicide bomber, and drink their own urine?
And I think that's why it is so difficult to build a conversation without morality "be not afraid", "mother", "all is well".
But it is impossible to be afraid of the world – in addition to terrible, good. About the terrible we will remember and the good rejoice. And a bit childish, to believe that this won't happen again.
that's What I tried to explain to the son, and the sobs gradually subsided. Calm down and chat: all agreed on the psychologist, on the fact that dad is stricter than mom, and the kids understand better than we do. The main thing – to find the right one, everyone – for your child, the words.
