That is a scary coincidence, i was talking to my mum about this one just the other day.
We were talking about death and how kids react to it. She saw a video online where it showed a child realizing that we die and it freaked her out in a bad way. Most parents avoid tough questions by sugarcoating them. This can create huge problems when the child realises those were lies.
Children are sponges in the way they learn things. They are easily able to grasp things you regard as touchy subjects. They have no real idea how the real world works, which means that they rely on you to teach them, and this includes any subject. Don't shy away from it.
