Although it is difficult to talk about this topic with children, we should talk about this topic as openly as possible to help children understand the meaning of life.

What to say when talking about death

Children need the help of their parents to understand death. Parents had better explain what happened as simply and truly as possible. For example,? I have some sad news for you. Your grandmother passed away this morning. ? Use? Dead? Or? Death? These words may be more direct, but they can avoid problems. What do parents say someone should do? Go to heaven? Or? Sleep? Children may feel confused or scared. Like someone who was told? Grandpa will sleep forever? A child may be afraid of sleeping because he is afraid that he will never get up.

Young children may not know the meaning of death, so parents try their best to describe it and make sure they understand that death will not disappear. For example,? Death means grandma's body stops working. She can't breathe, move or hug you. ? If parents themselves are in a very sad state and don't know how to talk about death with their children, they may need to practice with another adult first to see what they will say and how to answer their children's questions. Or you can write down some notes as a reminder.

Just like adults, when someone dies, children will feel sad, anxious and confused, but children can't express their feelings in words, which means they need parents' help to understand, name and deal with their feelings, such as repeating and affirming their feelings. Do you feel particularly sad? ?

How to answer the question about death

In the process of talking with children, children may ask all kinds of questions. For example, they will ask: Why did they die? ? The child is feeling death and wants to know the cause of death, so try to answer this question, for example,? Grandpa's heart is very old. The doctor tried to solve the problem, but his condition was not good and he couldn't solve it. There is no way out. ? For example, they will ask: Will you die? Will I die? ? Children begin to realize that their loved ones may die, and let him know that everyone will experience life and death, and some people will die when they are really old.

If you don't know the answer, you can say: I don't know, but we can look up the information together, read books together and try to find out the answer. ?
