when did you explain 9/11 to your kids

i explained it to my 6 and 5 year olds tonight. my oldest who will be 9 in oct already knows about it. my 6 year old said momma i think they flew the planes into the towers so they kill alot of ppl. from the mouth of babes. i dont remember 9/11 i was just a year old when it happened but my mom told me the story many times of how our neighbor came running in to tel her to turn on the tv while she was getting ready for class at college.

Correct. One of the terrorists hijacked a commercial flight from Boston and flew it into the side of one of the Twin Towers. Another terrorist hijacked a separate flight and flew towards the pentagon but he was over powered during the flight and it crashed into a field near the pentagon.

The flight that hit the World Trade Center did the most damage and caused the World Trade Center to collapse. I think 2 flights, one for each tower.

The CAA grounded every commercial flight after the twin towers were hit incase there were any more planes that were going to hit other buildings.
