Book Description
"I urge all parents to read Maria Trozzi's book and to be ready themselves to share their children's grief.... This book will surely help in such a preparation." --T. Berry Brazelton, M.D., professor emeritus, Harvard Medical School; author of Touchpoints
Through captivating stories and thoughtful analysis, Maria Trozzi explains how to handle the difficult job of talking with children and adolescents about loss, with discussions about: * How children perceive and interpret events such as death, disability, and divorce * Guiding children through the four tasks of mourning * Helping children face funerals, wakes, and memorial services * Children's fears and fantasies: how they express them, and how to address them * Age-appropriate responses to children's questions and concerns * Talking to children about long-term illness, suicide, family or community tragedy, and other special situations * What to do when children won't talk about loss, and when to seek professional help
"The wisdom, authenticity, and sheer presence of the author are evident from page one until the end of the beautifully written book. Terms like 'ground-breaking' and 'innovative' have been triviliazed by overuse. In this case they are deserved." --Stan Turecki, M.D., author of The Difficult Child
* Maria Trozzi is uniquely qualified to write this book--a trained professional, crisis consultant, and lecturer, she works directly with children, parents, educators, and health professionals nationwide
* Foreword by T. Berry Brazelton, M.D.
* Offers solid, constructive advice on talking with children of all ages, including adolescents
