“As the media pushes the narrative that Donald Trump creates bullies, I see multiple articles on how to talk to children about the election results. What message would you tell parents to give their children?”

An interesting discussion. I doubt many will take the time to listen, but still it is useful for those who take the time to listen.

Parents, be more concerned with explaining JayZ to your children, his message is far more damaging than anything Donald Trump could ever say.

How do parents explain Hillary, who even lies about the origin of her name?

We should spend far more time talking to our children about Clinton and how and why that corrupt criminal enterprise was tossed onto the ash heap of history.

Tell your children DONALD TRUMP is our President. We are to respect him and the office. Also urge them to pray for his protection and for GOD to give Him wisdom and guide him daily.

When I was 11 years old, the President of the United States had his brains blown out by a communist in Dallas. I don’t recall anyone deploying psychologists to counsel grieving children and yet somehow we survived. Weird!

Tell them to watch him and learn from him, and that they are blessed to be able to live in the USA during the time of one of our greatest presidents.

Hopefully the terms “intern” , “Lewinski”, “oral sex”, “sexual misconduct”, or “abuse of power” will not need to be used.

I have had friends lamenting the vulgarity of Trump’s words from so long ago. Sadly, it was lost on them that it was Hillary who incessantly ran the ads with his words, saying ‘our children are watching’. Yes, they were and they only heard these words because Hillary put them on TV, every day for weeks. Just like my generation’s children hearing about BJs in the 90’s. The Clintons have degraded our culture and society and I’m praying that Billary is ignored from now on. But I suspect the Media won’ have learned it’s lesson and will continue to go to the Clintons, as well as the Obamas, for commentary on whatever Trump does. Pray for our country. No generation’s children deserves/deserved to be polluted by exposure to the Clintons.

I explain it by saying that we’re going out for a celebratory Thanksgiving dinner - thanking God for His mercy on our country.
Not only that, we’re going out to celebrate again on Friday! This one deserves a double dose!

Comsidering the Clinton Crime syndicate’s proclivity for engaging in pedophilia, parents should be teaching their kids to avoid pizza and hot dog parties.

I can tell you how I told my 6 year old grand son about Trump...

He was born in New York, had great parents that worked to become great people to their community, Mr. Trump after going to Military School, and graduating from Wharton, he built his own business, has 4 children, 3 of whom have their own business and stand on their own two feet, his youngest son Barron is 10 years old and loves athletics and is very excited if his father becomes President of the United States of America...

He has never been a politician, has never held an office in any city, county, state or national office until he takes his oath on January 20, 2017, then he will become our 45th POTUS...

Being POTUS is a tremendous responsibility and should be respected, for foreign countries, some respect us, some don't but we are the Power Country of the World, and we are a mighty Nation, one which President Trump will lead with great pride, honor and respect...

Three days later, they voted in his class, after he was called on to explain Mr. Trump (using some of my insights) and the class voted 100% for Mr. Trump!!!

Dear President Reagan, We are still here. Today President Reagan, I can tell my children that we have, for now, staved off the destruction of the American Republic. I will tell them about you. I will tell them that they still need to always be vigilant, and I will tell them: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years...

Here is my lesson:

Formulate your positions carefully, and do not change them. Think them through.

Make sure everyone understands them and they will not change. Nor will you. These are your lines in the sand.

Out-work, out-hustle your opponent. Wear them down with sheer activity.

(when the autopsy of HRC is finally done, it will note that the 6 weeks or so between convention to the end, she did very few rallies with VOTERS. Those people that cast actual votes. She met with big ticket donors, and prepped for her debates, supposedly. While this was going on, DJT was holding 3-4 rallies every single day to thousands of people.

She lost because of sheer hubris.

How did you explain Bill's "blue dress" encounter to your children? How do you explain that Hillary Clinton is under criminal investigation, yet is still campaigning for president? How do you explain that when their candidate lost, some people (cough *Hillary supporters * cough) believed that they were entitled to negate the electoral process and beat people up?

I think you have a lot more to talk about with the losing side of this election than you do the winning side.

Perhaps any "explanation" of Trump might begin with a question, such as, "What do you know about Mr. Trump, and who told you about him?"

The answer might be surprising.

The answer may include a child's honest answer that he/she learned about him from seeing a TV commercial on TV.

If that is the child's response, then you have learned much of what you really need to know: children learned about so-called "bullying" words and vulgar references about girls and women from Hillary Clinton, as her greed and thirst for power prompted her to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on TV ads reproducing and distributing into the homes and the minds of children such awful ideas in order to promote herself by tearing down her opponent.

Many of Trump's words were in private conversations, only out there on TV because a mother and grandmother put them there for her own selfish purposes!

How do you "explain" any of this to a child?

Use age-old truths about the need to recognize that each of us must be careful about what we say and do, knowing that our words and actions have consequences, but that we are never "irredeemable" by the forgiveness and love of our Creator.
