How do I help my children cope with dads death?
I’m really sorry for your terrible loss. Try to keep some normality in their lives, don’t be afraid to ask for some help. It will be really hard for you to cope with the grief yourself for a while but you have to remember that moving on does not mean forgetting him. Keep his memory alive and tell them stories of their dad and all the little funny things he used to do. Maybe buy a book that explains to them the concept of death and tell them their daddy is in heaven being looked after by special angels and he will always be watching them and will be there when they need him- – they just can’t see him.
You all must receive counseling If you have a church, reach out to the pastor or his wife. I am sorry for your loss. I can’t say i know how you feel because i don’t and i can’t say time will heal your hurt. Right now you have to take one day at a time no matter how hard it will be. Your children need to feel your love and affection more now than ever. You also need to feel love from someone who has also lost their husband and has been left with children. I am hoping someone will read this who has gone through the same thing, because no one else can help.Maybe if you have a male friend of the family or even a male relative who cares they can help you. I’m sorry i can’t help but if i could i would.
