Like what good parents and other good guardians will do

when handling an ornery child

the applied use of the art and science of remaining calm and indifferent

with solid and grounding training

in strong critical thinking

and an awareness of their own and the child’s

scientifically well researched death anxious triggers

helps produce positive results –

like helping everyone impacted feel safer
