Death And Loss: Helping Children Manage

Death And Loss: Helping Children Manage Their Grief
The loss of a loved one is like an earthquake that fractures our emotional landscape. Although death is the most permanent loss we face, there are other forms of loss that can be devastating as well. The most common for children are moving and divorce. When adults decide to move or separate, usually after anticipating and gradually adjusting to the transition, children have no choice but to accept their decision.
Since children have less time and fewer skills to help them adjust to these situations, they are more vulnerable to loss than adults.
