The doctor is in: Children and trauma
Dr. Sarah Kiperman, assistant professor of educational psychology and a child psychologist at Beaumont Health, shares advice on how families can help children deal with trauma and talk about tragedies such as the Oxford High School shooting. “The first thing, and the easiest thing, we can do is check in with them – ask your kids directly how they’re doing and if they want to talk about anything…When we do notice changes in their behavior, their appearance or how they’re eating and sleeping – those are things to be looking out for.”
