Course overview
Lesson Overview

4.30 – Helping Kids Process Grief and Loss: Grief in children may appear as sadness, anger, confusion, or even silence. Helping them process it requires honesty and emotional availability. Parents should use clear, age-appropriate language rather than vague explanations. Allowing tears and questions normalizes emotional expression. Rituals such as memory boxes or letters can help children express love and remembrance. Encouraging storytelling about the lost person transforms pain into meaning. Patience is essential since grief unfolds over time, not in stages. Parents should also model healthy mourning rather than hiding their own sadness. When families grieve together, children learn that sorrow can coexist with love and healing. The goal is not to erase pain but to walk through it with compassion and support.
