Grief. Bereavement

Abstract

This fully updated second edition of Grief in Children explains children's understanding of death at different ages and provides information on how the adults around them can best help them cope.

Whether a child experiences the death or loss of a friend, family member, classmate or teacher, it is important for those caring for a bereaved child to know how to respond to their needs. Illustrated with vignettes, this accessible guide explores the methods of approaching grief that have been shown to work, provides advice on how loss and bereavement should be handled at school, explains when it is appropriate to enlist expert professional help and discusses the value of support for children and caregivers.
