Death can't be so bad if mom went through it. It makes it easier for the child to follow.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Once a child is confronted with the concept of death there's a certain innocence that goes.
I don't think kids have a problem with death. It's us older ones who are nearer to it, that start being frightened.
Remember that a woman who has given birth to a dead child has given birth and is recovering physically, too. Don't be afraid of grieving parents.
Being a parent is about your survival. Surviving the terrible two's is the most important thing.
There's nothing that symbolizes loss or grief more than a mother losing a child.
Losing your parent is unlike anything.
I mean, the idea of losing a parent is really inconceivable. I think there's just an undertone of dread about the subject, so people don't talk about it and don't prepare for it.
There's no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were.
I don't think you could get anything worse than losing a child. I think if my child died, I would prefer it if I were dead.
I think any parent, at some time or other, has thoughts of their child dying. That's probably one of the worst things that could ever happen to a parent.
