Supporting Your Child After the Loss of their Sibling

Welcome to the When Grief Comes Home podcast. We're glad you're here. This podcast supports parents who are grieving a spouse, partner, or child while helping their children who are living through the loss of a parent or sibling. With personal grief stories and professional guidance, we offer parents practical tips for supporting their child who is grieving while caring for their own grief. In this episode, Erin, Colleen, and Brad discuss how a parent can support their child as they grieve the loss of their sibling. Parents are encouraged to hold honest conversations as their child or children begin to have questions and worries about death. We also guide parents to hold space for their child's emotions and normalize their fears.This episode encourages parents to keep the memory of the sibling alive through linking objects or bookmaking to alleviate the fear of forgetting them. The importance of intentional time is also emphasized as we share about the value of one-one time with each child after the death.Please subscribe to the When Grief Comes Home podcast and leave us a review.
