As I turn on the television and flip through the channels all I’ve been seeing lately are updates or breaking news topics about our economy and the record breaking job losses.
There are more and more working class families losing their jobs and finding it very hard to make ends meet while trying to keep things together for the sake of their family.
As parents we want to protect our children but what do we do when faced with such an issue and how do we speak to our children about it?
PBS has taken their show, A Place of Our Own and created a series regarding the economy and how to speak to our children about the subject matter.
