A Real Parent's Story
How I explained the bomb to my 9-year-old
“She asked about a melted tricycle in glass. I wasnt ready. The children section helped us talk.”
Read full story
I worried this was too heavy. Instead it became our most meaningful conversation. The museum handles it with incredible sensitivity. We spent an hour reading stories of kids who lived through the bombing.
