Children Coping with Loss

How can an adult find the best way of supporting a child who is mourning the loss of a parent, sibling or friend? What can you say? What can you do?

Each bereavement is unique to the individual, and each individual’s response to bereavement will be different, even within a family. The bereavement belongs to those who have experienced the loss; we can only hope to be compassionate companions on their journey.

Since 1992, Sue McDermott OBE has helped many thousands of bereaved children to cope with their feelings of emptiness, confusion and pain. This book offers advice and encouragement drawn from Sue’s years of experience and hands-on engagement with children in their loss and grief resulting from the death of a loved one or other life losses.
