Helping Our Kids Grieve Loss w/ Annie F. Downs and Tatum Green

This week we are discussing "Helping Our Kids Grieve Loss" with Annie F. Downs and Tatum Green - authors of Where Did TJ Go?   None of us are exempt from loss. We have all lost someone we love in some way or another. This is a painful subject that we often don't know how to talk to our kids about—but it's also incredibly crucial that we do. How do we talk to our kids about grief and loss in a healthy, honest, and appropriate way? Our guests this week, New York Times bestselling author, Annie F. Downs and her sister, Tatum Green are Co-Authors on a new book - Where Did TJ Go? (Baker Books) and they will help us navigate this challenging topic.    Where Did TJ Go? helps children and families deal with grief and loss, offering comfort and hope.   After Green suffered the loss of a baby, Downs wrote a story for her nephew, Sam, about where his baby brother TJ went. Beautifully illustrated by Jennie Poh, Where Did TJ Go? helps grieving families explain what happened and what kind of experiences a child might be having in heaven with the God who loves them and makes everything good in its time.Tender and sincere, this story doesn't shy away from the hurt even as it offers comfort and hope to those left behind. "We are so hopeful that this book will serve families in their grief- giving parents some tools for starting conversations with their kids, and giving kids some vision and hope about eternity."   https://wheredidtjgo.com/ LINK TO SHOW NOTES For all the detailed show notes, tips and links click - https://soloparent.org/show-notes-blog   ASK US ANYTHING!
