News editors everywhere face a balancing act in determining what to include in war reporting. Wading into sensitive subjects like war for a readership of eight- to 14-year-olds isn’t easy. It is tempting to protect youngsters from bad news. Yet children are most disturbed when there’s an information vacuum .... These forms of media may be making children more politically engaged and active. — From “How do you explain war to a six-year-old? The Economist, April 9, 2022
