Explaining death to children.
#8
RE: Explaining death to children.
Well of course, I am not suggesting for one moment you say to a child "look, they're dead, shit happens". A gentle explanation of how nothing or no one lives forever, but the memory of our loved ones will live on inside us. That is the type of explanation I would go for. You can tell a child these things without talking down to them or spinning a big fat lie about heaven and angels.
