We have to treat our public figures we respect:

Their mental health is more of a sensitive matter than ours because they experience more attacks (written, oral, and in art pieces), and more pressures to be all things to all people than we do.

• "Parents/caregivers may also choose to participate in calls for action to help the victims and/or their families. When doing so, it may be beneficial to talk with your children, in a developmentally age-appropriate way, about the steps you have taken to be helpful and kind to the victims. Taking helpful and concrete actions can serve to encourage children to feel more hopeful and to reduce feelings of helplessness in the face of tragedy. When you model constructive coping strategies and resilience for your child, they are learning how to cope with it themselves.
• While children are resilient in general, some children may be more vulnerable in how they are impacted by tragedies or be at increased risk for secondary trauma. Be familiar with the red flags for concerning behaviors. If your child’s behavioral changes do not gradually decrease or are significant enough to negatively impact their social, home, or school functioning, then seek professional help. For instance, if they are avoiding going outside for fear that a helicopter crash may occur near them, then they may benefit from seeing a child mental health professional for an assessment."
