However, because their thoughts and verbal skills are not quite grown up yet, children do not express them the way adults do. Let a support group consisting of their peers and trained facilitators provide your children with ways of expression that will free up their feelings and allow healing.
Adolescence is perhaps one of the most difficult and confusing stages in life.
When this period is complicated by the death of a loved one, teens' mixed messages to us often intensify. Because people do not always know how to respond to teens, they frequently back off, resulting in a teen who is left to grieve alone with very limited support. A place to talk with peers through some of the same experiences does wonders to safely release often frightening thoughts and feelings. This helps to normalize the grief process for teens. Join us in learning to attend to your own needs while meeting those of your children.
