Loss and death impact all of us.  Teenaged children are a special case when it comes to this.  A few things to consider when helping a teen cope with the loss of a loved on or a friend:

  • Know what are common actions and reactions for your teen.  How a young teen (13) might respond is most likely different that how a 17-year-old will respond.
  • Watch and listen to them.  Look for opportunities to interact with them and help them.
  • Don’t force a teen to talk.  They’ll talk when they are ready.
  • Make time to talk and when they do decide to talk, give them your undivided attention.

These are just basic guidelines.  Please consult other sources.  For example, look to WebMD for more information.
