What Can a 15-Year-Old Teach Us About Grief? (April Commons)

April Commons has never met her sister, Lola, who died before birth, but she has always known her.In this powerful conversation, April, just 15 years old, shares what it’s like growing up in a family where grief is open, honest, and part of everyday life.She speaks with remarkable clarity about “secondary grief,” the importance of honesty with children, and why wrapping young people in bubble wrap often does more harm than good.From helping at bereavement retreats to supporting classmates who quietly share their own losses, April shows that young people understand far more than we often give them credit for.🙌 OUR SPONSORS National Association of Funeral Directors: https://www.nafd.org.uk/ Westerleigh Group: https://www.westerleighgroup.co.uk/ Obitus: https://www2.obitus.com Laurelo: https://laurelo.co.uk/ Howden: https://www.howdeninsurance.co.uk/small-business/by-business-type/funeral-sector/?int=10805 MuchLoved: https://www.muchloved.com/
