How Children Deal With Loss

Hospice Quinte: Changing Lives Podcast

Everyone who experiences loss will grieve differently, and children of course are no exception. The primary difference in adult versus child grief is the way in which the grieving process is demonstrated, leaving adults who care for grieving children at times confused and worried that somehow their child isn’t grieving normally. The way children respond to death is different from adults which makes sense since their experience with death is more limited, and the ability to think in the abstract isn’t quite developed. Find out more in this week's podcast.
