Research Abstract

This study aims to explore how children respond to their experiences of death and other related forms of loss, as well as examining what kinds of communication exist between children and their parents regarding death and loss experiences. Subjects were 868 parents with children from 1^<st> grade through 6^<th> grade volunteered to participate in the study. Common loss experiences amongst the children were the attending of funerals and visiting sick family members (85%), loss of a pet (50%) and follows death of parents/grandparents (42%). Of those parents, 70% said they had a conversation about death and dying with their children on a daily basis, and many said that social problems and news reports concerning murder and suicide cause them to bring up that conversation. Many parents believe that it is important to have "death-related" conversations from early on in their children's lives, but more than 30% of parents reported that they never had an opportunity to have such discussions with their children. While the desire of parents to provide death education for their children is quite strong, according to the results only 30% of parents have such opportunities to communicate with their children about death and loss experiences.
