Kids & Terence Crutcher

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

How do you explain US police shootings to children at school? One teacher at a school attended by Terence Crutcher's children posted on Facebook to explain what children had been asking and how she and colleagues were responding. Also at school - should children be "shamed" over their parents' actions? A dinner lady in Pennsylvania resigned over a policy in which children with unpaid bills are allegedly given worse food until the debt was cleared. Her Facebook post went viral as others shared their stories. And the Disney costume pulled from sale over accusations of cultural appropriation. Would you have bought it for your kids?
