Would you let your 9 year old report on a suspected murder?

[SneakyDave]

I'm a little torn on my opinion of this. I'd certainly like my kids to be able to choose anything they'd like to pursue their interests, but I don't think I'd want them involved with "reporting" a suspected murder at a crime scene.

 

I've got a daughter that spends an abnormally large amount of time watching videos about surgeries and surgical procedures, and I have to make sure that what she's watching is appropriate for her age, but I try to encourage her curiosity.

 

But homicide reporting? That's a little bit too macabre for me. Even if she's not actually in the house where the murder happened.

There was a response from Hilde and the Orange Street News, regarding her reporting on a homicide, but it's currently been removed:
