I don't have any children, but I remember very well how I was introduced to the concept of death. It was at the height of the Vietnam war when even the European news were full of casualty lists and the news reader went on and on about numbers of deads. So I kept asking my parents and still being not much more than a very small child, they were evasive. Which made me even more curious and mystified the concept.

Today I think, my parent's approach wasn't the best.
