The death of a parent marks an emotional and psychological
watershed in a person's life. For children and teenagers, the loss
of a parent if not handled sensitively can be a lasting trauma, and
for adults too, a parent's death can be a tremendous blow.
When Parents Die speaks to bereaved children of all ages. Rebecca
Abrams draws on her personal and professional understandings of
parental loss, as well as the experiences of many other adults,
teenagers and children, to provide the reader with an honest,
compassionate and insightful exploration of the experience of
losing a parent. The book covers the entire course of grieving,
from the immediate aftermath of a parent's death through to the
point of recovery, paying particular attention to the many
circumstances that can prolong and complicate mourning, including
sudden death.
An indispensible aid to the bereaved and the many professionals who
work with them, this book is written in a clear and sympathetic
style. It has been fully revised for this third edition to take
recent research and theoretical developments into account.
