How Children Cope With Grief

These articles explain some of our grief and feelings relative to our age. The first link is for ages 4-6, then 7-11, and the last one is for 12-17. They are helpful in describing why we might be feeling what we are and especially why this is different from what adults are feeling or how they are acting. These articles help us understand that our feelings are unique because of our age, and will help explain that our family members may all be grieving a little bit differently.
