My son is nearly 10. He's very bright and a real thinker. He likes to understand things properly and cannot be fobbed off with trite or badly thought out explanations.
I talked to him and his sister about what happened in Paris and they watch Newsround every day so are aware of the vote on bombing Syria. My DD hasn't really shown much interest, but my son keeps asking very detailed questions about why ISIS do the things they do and how they can be stopped. He seems unsettled by the idea of bombing Syria. I admit I'm quite ignorant about these issues. I'm doing my best to answer him, but would like to do better!
Do any of you better informed MNetters know of anywhere that he or I can read about these issues to gain a better understanding?
Thanks for any help with this.
