Resources For Talking With Your Child About Grief
Death is difficult for all of us to understand and for children/adolescents, it's particularly hard to grasp. Children and adolescents' reactions to death vary greatly. Their grief may be expressed as sadness, fear anger and even silliness. Children/adolescents may fear the loss of another loved one and may want to remain closer to parents and/or other family members for a while. Although understanding of death may be limited, no child is too young to feel and respond to loss and sadness. Children and adolescents need the support of warm, caring adults who allow them to experience their grief.
​
The links below offer some resources to help you understand and support a grieving child or adolescent.
