How to help your child when a pet dies

Sometimes people avoid telling children about the death of a pet right away because the conversation can be so difficult. When a pet dies, it is best to tell your child soon after it happens rather than avoiding or putting off the conversation.

I. Your child will be better equipped to discuss the pet's fate with you and feel better knowing they made the right choice. Telling your child right away helps you remember that responsibility is important, but after you have the talk, it also makes it much easier to explain what a pet did when it died.
II. This may help soften the mood, make the conversation less stressful, and help remind the child that pets are not death interferences. Remember that your child may have other things going on in his life, including school and other commitments.
III. Your child may feel betrayed if you wait to tell him or her about the death of your pet. Be honest while leaving out any details that might traumatize your child.
