In the past year my daughter has lost a friend, a cat, and a grandma. That's a lot for a kid. Her great g'pa died this weekend. We don't even want to tell her about it because she has become very concerned with death: her own, our other cat, her mom, her dad, her friends...
I read last year that when asked by a small child "will I die?" I am supposed to answer, "no".
But I feel like she needs to hear it in order to understand all the death around her.
...btw. natural disasters, war, famine, AIDS...etc....
I understand that my "problem" is not really a problem at all.
I am merely asking for advice.
Thanks.
