I have 4 grandchildren that lost their dad a day before Thanksgiving in 2022. They will not talk about it, I can see them suffering dearly. (This dad is my son he was 36). Their mom is not there for them it's all about her. The children are 14 year old twin daughters. A 12 year old son. Another son 5 year old. None of them have had the time to grieve. I don't know how much I need to step in. I am afraid they are being neglected.
I am so sorry to hear this. Often and outside grief counselor helps because children sometimes try to protect their loved ones and family members by not saying anything they think might upset them. And/Or you could have a conversation with them and let them know it is okay to talk to you about the loss. That you can handle it and would like it if they talked to you.
I've learned so much from your channel about working with kids and teens!
Thank you so much!! You're so right about little exposure to grief counseling in graduate programs, I felt that way with my studies in MFT.
This was lovely. Thank you so much
I got your worksheets! I am going to be using them in a session today!
Yay let me know how it goes--Quenby
Thanks for this, I'm in a grad program and in my internship my very first client is a 6yo with grief after losing his mom. I have had 0 training in this area so this was a very helpful start!

HI, I AM A CHILD OF GOD, and my identity is in JESUS CHRIST and not in my struggles. Although, I still struggle with time management, goal setting, mental triggers due to ambiguous grief and setting appropriate boundaries. My name is Rose.
Throughout my entire life I have been dealing with multiple losses. Like, I already experienced pet-pal separation before my parents divorced, thus experiencing separation from my biological father (at the age of 3); and later, the tragic death of my grandmother - before my mother immediately got married to my step-dad (and we all lived with his adopted mother) by the time I turn nine years old.
Sadly, this included moving away from my only best friend and changing schools at least 3 times before my grade 3 season ended. By then, I was so overwhelmed with having to adjust to all the fast-paced changes that I completely shut-down from verbal communication - which prevented me from making new relationships with my then peers. Unfortunately, I became an easy target for teasing and bullying. I had a female nemesis making sure I didn’t have any new girlfriends and a male neighbor/nemesis who would beat me up and torment me on the way home after school. I developed fears of speaking up in class knowing my peers would laugh and tease me if I got the answers wrong. I had insensitive teachers who would not correct them nor validate me. These were the known and shown reasons for my then mental insecurities and trust issues.
Back at home, I had an emotionally/physically absent mother; she was a workaholic and a people pleaser. She hardly spent any time with me and I soon found myself jealous, when a female neighbor and peer from Girl Guides became the number one person who received my mother’s attention; because her own mother (the Girl Guide Leader and friend to my mother) had recently died.
As I got closer to the age of 13, I also experienced the death of my great-grandmother (who was the anchor of our family, as she kept us going to church and my only adult person I could talk to), my other grandmother on my dad’s side also died and she too was close to me). There were other close family members and additional pet losses; but no adult ever checked-in on my feelings. By grade nine I had enough of my family’s lack of care and enough abuse from my peers that I spoke up and convinced the adults in my life that I needed to change schools - All of a sudden, I had a powerful voice that could change my circumstances. This new power led me to being estranged from my family.
I started drinking at the age of 14. I first married at the age of 19. I became a mother at the age of 18, 30, and 33. My biological dad died at the age of 21. I later divorced at the age of 24. I lost all 3 of my children to the Ministry of Children Services at the age of 34: my firstborn was adopted by my parents, and my younger two were adopted out to a homosexual stranger. I remarried at the age of 36. I became a widow at the age of 43. I had a stroke and my first surgery at the age of 44. I remarried once again at the age of 48. AND I recently lost my firstborn child at the age of 49. I am currently 53 and now for the very first time I am learning what the word GRIEF truly means. Thankfully though I have a wonderful support team here in Kelowna with Celebrate Recovery, who encouraged me to cope with their Christian based 12 Step-program. And as I desperately sought counseling to understand my triggers, I was then introduced to Grief-share and here I am.
Still, I give GOD ALL THE GLORY for IT has truly been GOD ALL along getting me through every loss and every life changing moment. I would not be here if I didn’t have my faith and trust in JESUS CHRIST. THANK YOU JESUS for letting me run to you, again and again, and again. HALLELUJAH!!!
