Sometimes children will have to face the death of a loved one. What is the BEST way for a parent to deal with this situation?
Do your best to avoid talking about the death because this might make the child
very sad.
Never let the child see the parent mourn so the child doesn't know that the
parent is hurting.
Acknowledge the child's feelings, and let the child know that they are there to
offer support.
Do not attend any memorial services with the child as it will likely cause the child
a great deal of stress.
