Description
Content warning: death, death of family members and pets, suicideIn today’s episode, we are joined by Dr. Elena Lister and Dr. Michael Schwartzman authors of Giving Hope: Conversations with Children About Illness, Death and Loss. During this conversation, we approach many questions from the Curious Neuron community about death, and how to talk to your children about death.Dr. Lister & Schwartzman give us many tools & scripts we can use as parents. This episode was so insightful for my parenting journey, and I’m sure it will be for yours too. Not only do we cover grieving in children, but we also discuss how death can be something difficult for adults too. We cover so many great topics like pregnancy loss, suicide, and death of a grandparent or pet. Tune in to hear why every 4-year-old needs a goldfish, it’s more than just learning how to care for another life.Remember, you can now listen to the Curious Neuron Podcast on YouTube!
