To say I’m heartbroken about the tragedy in Uvalde, Texas, betrays my limitations as a writer. There are more-powerful words to convey the emotions I’m feeling—we’re likely all feeling. But I want to cut to the chase: I’m writing to share resources that I hope will be helpful if and when your children turn to you, their trusted adults, with hard questions. Links are below. As always, you can reach me at andrea@time.com.

Best,
Andrea
