Death+and+Grief

The main problem with people facing death is dealing with the absence of the deceased in their life, the hole that is left in their normal everyday lives which the lost person filled. Grieving can be categorized in different ways; Physical reactions, frequent thoughts, strong emotions, and spiritual reactions. “Grief is a reaction to loss, but it's also the name we give to the process of coping with the loss of someone who has died.” This source pertained towards my research question in a great way. It gave me information of how kids deal with the loss of a loved one, and how they are given different pieces of advice than adults are. This source helped me realize that younger people tend to be in fact less emotionally attached when dealing with loss, and often just have a problem with dealing with filling the void left by the deceased rather than having to overcome a strong emotional bond, with exception of paternal or maternal figures.
