Re: Explaining bereavement to kids

Sincere condolences on your sad loss.

It is a very hard job to explain to children....and every child will be different in their needs. I think that you just have to be there for them and answer their questions honestly.
I'm sure that the Cancer care organisations have some books to help, but you know your children best and are therefore best placed to know what is best for them
