Few Words to a Caring Adult Wanting to Support a Grieving Child
|
| |
|
| |
The
greatest gift you can offer a child whose loved one died is to give
him or her permission to feel and express the emotions of grief -
fear, sadness, anger and love. Remember: you do NOT have to have all
the answers to the mysteries of life. Validate the child's story (unless
there are inaccurate facts - which you will want to gently correct);
encourage the child to draw pictures, write letters or poetry; and
create safety for them to release feelings of anger and/or sadness,
while honoring their grief process. Children can go in and out of
grief very quickly. One minute they may be crying and the next minute
inquiring what's for dessert.Ê Learn to just go with the child's flow.
