Occasionally, he gets mended and restuffed as well. I know of many parents experiencing the same trials and tribulations of security items. She rubs her face with it in times of trouble and at bedtime. She is even willing to share it with mother when she isn't well. There may come a time when a treasured item gets lost.
Most parents panic at the thought of losing a security object.
But the truth is that most children get over the loss within a few days. Some may replace the item with another, but others will simply give it up. It is often the parents that are more devastated and for a longer period than the child. One way to help your child to get past this devastating loss is not to continually mourn for your child. Let him be the judge of the mourning period.
