Sinopsis

With this resource, the reader learns to recognize and understand different types of childhood losses while avoiding the stifling cliches that block feeling. The reader will also become aware of the myths that hinder the grief process, learn the four psychological tasks of grief, and help a child say good-bye to a dying loved one. Finally, the author explains the techniques of grief work, providing useful tools, ideas, and inventories for educators to discover ways for kids to commemorate loss (funerals, memorials, memory books).

The second edition of Life and Loss creates a framework for work with childhood grief in the new millenium. A vast amount of resources have been added and updated, some especially for educators and for those who work with children and dying. Also included are web sites, cd-roms, and grief camps. Additional grief resolution techniques have also been added, demonstrating children's written work and artwork as well. The inclusion of two timely childhood losses - the loss of the protection of the adult world and the loss of a future - sets the stage for griefwork for today's and tomorrow's children.

Críticas

"Goldman is well established as child's advocate, counselor and frien. Her many publications, programs as well as personal interventions have brought endless comfort and care to children and to their familites. This book is about life and loss, and about children. Goldman uses story, craft, feelings to guide children and parents. Goldman is a name you will remember, and wisely so." -Resources Hotline "In reviewing the first edition of this book, "Bereavement Magazine called it a fantastically complete teaching manual for everyone working/living/loving with grieving children. I would heartily agree. When I review, I don't usually interject personal information. However, the issue of children's grief is close to my heart. As I read this manual, it was clear that support persons in our life needed the very information this book provides. It wasn't available then. School problems, behavior problems, etc. were dealt with reactively and punitively. Many situations might have played out much differently if all of us had really understood the far-reaching responses that children have to grief experience." - Karyn Reddick, Diplomate College of Pastoral Supervision and Psychotherapy
