Grief Out Loud: Teens Talk About Loss
How To Help Children Handle Grief After the Death of a Parent - By Kelsey Borresen
The Psych Central Podcast: Helping Children Grieve
When children experience the deep pain of separation or death, it can be extremely healing to learn they are still connected to their loved ones by an invisible
string of love. That’s the premise of the children’s book The Invisible String, written by Patrice Karst, the guest on this episode of the Psych Central podcast.
Patrice sits down to talk with Gabe about what sparked her idea for writing this classic book as well as her subsequent books, including The Invisible Leash,
a story to help kids deal with the loss of a pet. As Patrice puts it, her books are about love and connection to each other, to our animals, and to the planet.
