Coronavirus: How to talk to your kids about COVID-19 fears

Last Updated Sunday, March 15, 2020 2:58PM EDTTORONTO -- School is cancelled, parents are staying home from work, and routines are being disrupted from morning until night.

As a teacher and a mother, the Sudbury, Ont woman says she has had to do "a lot of explaining" about the virus at work and at home. "A lot of our kids are being exposed to a lot of scary things -- myths, pseudo-science -- and we want some element of control there to make sure that they're staying safe," she told CTV News Toronto on March 11.

"I think it's really important to see what your kids know, what are they worried about and what are they asking you," Kulik said.Part of the fear of COVID-19 comes from the many unknowns about the coronavirus that causes it. News coverage and social media platforms are full of images of people wearing protective equipment, ever-growing case numbers, and warnings about what to do to prevent the virus from spreading.

Why the 23rd doesnt make sense to me. And if schools are closed wouldn't daycares be also? Having an extra week to possibly expose our children to covid-19 doesnt not make any sense to me.
