How Do You Deal With A Childs Drowning Death?
When a child dies in a drowning incident, it is truly a tragedy. It is a parent’s worst nightmare and is not easy to recover from no matter who you are or what you do. There are some things you can do to help cope with the tragedy the best you can. Decide what you will do about the area where your child died. If the incident happened in your backyard pond or pool, make a decision as to whether you’re going to keep the pond or pool or remove it from the backyard. Removing the scene of the incident can help tremendously. Many people also find that moving away from the incident scene helps them cope. Grieve with family and friends for as long as you need to. You may just grieve for the rest of your life, and you need to come to terms with that and be okay with it. Allowing yourself to grieve fully helps you deal with the drowning death. Place a memorial at the location of the drowning. Create your own personal memorial to the child and place it at the pool or pond where your child passed
