Emotional Journalling by Lloyd Leon

Grief is a powerful emotion that everyone experiences at some point in their lives, especially when we lose someone or something we love. For children, understanding what grief is can be confusing and overwhelming. It’s important to know that grief is a natural response to loss, whether it’s a beloved pet, a family member, or a close friend. Children may feel a range of emotions from sadness and anger to confusion and even guilt. Grief can manifest in different ways, such as crying, withdrawal, or even acting out. Recognizing these feelings is the first step in processing them.
