Headlines on My Couch: Pulse attack, Korea, Celeb Suicides

Are news headlines sending you running for the hills or back into bed to hide under the covers? Today, Dr. Carole puts the top headlines on her couch to analyze them for you and take you inside the heads of the newsmakers to figure out what's really going on and why. First, since today is the 2-year anniversary of the tragic Pulse nightclub terror attack, she honors the victims and recaps the story, with an update about Omar Mateen's widow having recently been acquitted of all charges in a travesty of justice. Next, she talks about the Summit between President Trump and Kim Jong Un-and gives you advice on how to talk to children about it. Then she analyzes the sad news about Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain's suicides. Dr. Carole explains how we are all more fragile since 9/11, so deep personal traumas can more easily push us over the edge. Indeed, Spade's husband left her and Bourdain's girlfriend jilted him for another guy-causing unbearable pain that sent them over the brink.
