When Children Grieve is an essential primer for parents and others who interact with children on a regular basis. -- Bernard McGrane, Ph.D., Professor of Sociology, Chapman University and U.C. Irvine</strong></p><p><strong>The first--and definitive--guide to helping children really deal with loss from the authors of the <em>The Grief Recovery Handbook</em></strong></p><p>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 <em>The Grief Recovery Handbook</em>, 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.</p><p><em>When Children Grieve</em> 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.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>To watch a child grieve and not know what to do is a profoundly difficult experience for parents, teachers, and caregivers. Yet, there are guidelines for helping children develop a lifelong, healthy response to loss.</p>In <em>When Children Grieve, </em> the authors offer a cutting-edge volume to free children from the false idea of not feeling bad and to empower them with positive, effective methods of dealing with loss.</p>There are many life experiences that can produce feelings of grief in a child, from the death of a relative or a divorce in the family to more everyday experiences such as moving to a new neighborhood or losing a prized possession. No matter the reason or degree of severity, if a child you love is grieving, the guidelines examined in this thoughtful book can make a difference.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"There isn't anyone in life who hasn't experience some kind of loss.
