Ep. 91: What's Changed For Grieving Children? The 1950's

In 1955 Jack was ten and living with his mother, who was raising him alone. She and Jack's father adopted him when he was a tiny infant, which meant she was the only mother he knew. Jack's mother and father got divorced when he was really young, so for the most part, she was also his only parent. One night, Jack's mother died suddenly and unexpectedly of a heart attack, leaving him not only in deep grief but unsure of where he would end up and who he would live with.
