My boys were very young when 9-11 happened. They were SO agitated and upset by the live footage that I turned off the television after somewhere between fifteen and thirty minutes. Definitely less than thirty, but not by much.

They talk about it more in the abstract, because I wasn't going to allow my feelings of trauma to bleed over and wreck THEIR psyches (they were barely in grade school). Very similar to the impact of Reagan's shooting, though I was in middle school when that happened.

I just hope they have another decade or more before they grok, too.
