Transcript
When bad things happen, it's totally normal to feel upset and worried. To think things like:
Why did this happen?
Could this happen to me?
Could this happen to my family and friends?
Am I safe?
It can be useful to remember that sometimes worrying events are in the news because they don't happen very often and that it's very unlikely that you or anyone you know will be affected by them.
So what should you do if you're feeling sad and anxious?
Talk about it. You can speak to your parents, a teacher or an adult you can trust. They can reassure you and help you feel better. And remember, when things like this happen, most people are there to help.
