Resumen del Editor

The first - and definitive - guide to helping children really deal with loss from the authors of the The Grief Recovery Handbook.

Following deaths, divorces, or the confusion of major relocation, many adults tell their children “don’t feel bad”. In fact, say the authors of the highly praised The Grief Recovery Handbook, feeling bad or sad is precisely the appropriate emotion attached to sad events. Encouraging a child to bypass grief without completion can cause unseen long-term damage.

When Children Grieve helps parents break through the misinformation that surrounds the topic of grief. It pinpoints the six major myths that hamper children in adapting to life’s inevitable losses. Practical and compassionate, it guides parents in creating emotional safety and spells out specific actions to help children move forward successfully.

Best Resource Ever

I have found this material so helpful with my young therapy clients. Also loved the original!

So general it does not help.

The book is so general that I did not feel it really gave any specific help. The "letters" supposedly written by children make no sense. Kids don't write like that. Unrealistic. I listened to the entire book just because I paid for it but it was not helpful. Also, loss from death and loss from Divorce do not belong in the same book. Not at all the same.
