Michelle Obama Addresses Parents in Letter on Tucson Tragedy
(CBS) Being a parent, we've always said at "Eye on Parenting," isn't easy -- especially when faced with difficult questions by our kids. You may be getting some of those difficult questions as your children learn about the shooting tragedy in Tucson.
First lady Michelle Obama today offered her thoughts on the tragedy from a parent's perspective.
She writes, "In the days and weeks ahead, as we struggle with these issues ourselves, many of us will find that our children are struggling with them as well. The questions my daughters have asked are the same ones that many of your children will have - and they don't lend themselves to easy answers. But they will provide an opportunity for us as parents to teach some valuable lessons - about the character of our country, about the values we hold dear, and about finding hope at a time when it seems far away.
