Children grieve in different ways. Military children face unique challenges after the death of a service member. Some may develop traumatic grief responses, making it more difficult to cope.

Here are ways to recognize and help your military child with traumatic grief.

Most of you who experience the death of someone important adjust and recover over time. However, some of you may have more trouble adjusting and may develop Childhood Traumatic Grief. This can happen if the death was sudden, such as from a homicide, suicide, mass shooting, disaster, accident, or an unexpected medical reason.

All of us face a variety of stresses daily. Currently, you may be dealing with additional responsibilities at work and new challenges with parenting. Consider your level of distress before deciding what approach you’d like to take to address it. Gauging your level of distress is as important as practising self-care strategies.
