When my oldest...I couldn't agree with you more. When my oldest was just over 2, his brother was born too early and died 8 days later. We were, and continue to be, very open with him in grieving and talking things through. We told him before the funeral that everyone would be sad and crying but that we would all help each other and it wouldn't always be that way.Kirstiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03507227229125019649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111854457227184013.post-61609763600577866042011-09-29T22:42:39.288-05:002011-09-29T22:42:39.288-05:00Marcia, I love your words of wisdom about sharing ...Marcia, I love your words of wisdom about sharing our feelings and sadness with children. I have training as both a hospice volunteer and a stephen minister. We learned in that training that our culture pressures us to sweep things under the rug as we deal with grief today. Many of those people will then have far deeper issues later in time. Children benefit from seeing adults in their life expressing emotions, whether it is joy or sadness. Thanks for sharing your caring perspective on this topic!Cindy Wilkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17645265411490628176noreply@blogger.com
