On this episode of Let's Reconnect we discuss the Bondi Terror Attack and advice on how to support kids who may have been impacted or exposed after Breanna was asked by both parents and the media about what they can do to help.

Here is a link to some fact sheets by Emerging Minds and Hedspace on this topic

We first take a deep dive with some parents who joined Breanna on location to discuss when they intend to introduce smart phones to their kids and what worries them about their children getting access to a smart phone. We discuss some considerations for Parents if they are introducing a smart phone to their kids this Christams.

We will take a break over Christmas and have some exciting episodes coming up for you.
