My husband is dead. He died. My husband died 2.5 years ago. I don’t like saying “my husband passed away” “I lost my husband” I find I use a different language to soften my news for others. We need to change the way we talk about Death and stop the conversation being taboo- thread
It’s no wonder people find it so hard to talk and express themselves once their person has died. I really believe the discussion of Death should be brought in from an early age, make it less taboo, open the understanding, answer the children’s innocent yet direct questions
With honesty and compassion. We need to learn how to grieve healthily by remembering ,talking, sharing. Of course we want to shield our children from pain, but aren’t we causing them greater pain in the long run when they don’t know how to deal with their emotions
I’d love to
