Listen "Helping Young Children Through The Death Of A Sibling"
Episode Synopsis
Managing your role as a parent to a young child after the loss of a child can be overwhelming. In this episode, Michele provides compassionate insight into how parents can approach this difficult time in life, how children experience grief, and what to do and what not to do to help with the healing process. Michele also talks about the grief children may experience in divorce and how grief is not just the loss of a loved one.Parents are often unaware of how children process grief and how to support a child through the grieving process. We discuss how often well-intentioned messages and practices may make grieving and healing more difficult for children. Michele provides specific messages and insight into how to navigate these often challenging situations around grief and loss. About the Guest:Michele Benyo is a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist®, early childhood educator and parent coach, and the founder of Good Grief Parenting. After her 6-year-old son died of cancer, her 3-year-old daughter said, “Mommy, half of me is gone.” This heartbreaking statement defined Michele’s life purpose. Her mission is twofold: to help parents through the unimaginable challenges of parenting while grieving the death of a child, and to equip parents to meet the unique needs of a child who has lost a sibling in the early childhood years. The desire of Michele’s heart is to see families live forward after loss toward a future bright with possibilities and even joy.
