Whether a child experiences the death of a parent, sibling, other relation or friend, classmate or teacher, it is important for those caring for them to know how to respond appropriately to the child’s needs. This book deals with a range of common physical and psychological responses and describes the methods of approaching grief in children that work best. The author provides guidance on how loss and bereavement should be handled at school, explains when it is appropriate to involve expert professional help and discusses the value of bereavement groups for children and support for caregivers.
