Helping children cope
(CNN) -- The first anniversary of September 11 marks a year of intense, often unfamiliar feelings for all of us -- but especially for children.

The National Institute of Mental Health gives some suggestions for parents of children who may have been emotionally traumatized.
CNN Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta spoke to a child psychologist and seven elementary schoolchildren at the Atlanta International School to find out how they experienced September 11 and how they deal with their fears of terrorism. |
