When children grieve

When children grieve
Our society often tends to keep the subject of child death away.
Children have their own way of dealing with the loss of a loved one and feel when something bad has happened.
Many people prefer not to talk about issues that are emotionally stressful and find it difficult to talk to children about death and dying.
But death is an inevitable part of our life.
By giving children information about death openly, we can prepare them for crises.



  • Try to be open when your child needs to talk about something and when it is not ready.
  • Use concrete and familiar examples
  • Answer his questions in an age-appropriate manner
  • Respect and respect the child's feelings



For a child as well as for an adult, it can be extremely important to be able to say goodbye personally to the deceased and to attend the funeral.
It can help him understand the finality and prevents him from developing unsettling ideas in his imagination.
Give your child the opportunity to make their own decisions and talk to them beforehand.
It should only participate if it wants to do it itself.
