Talking About Death With Kids: Encouraging Courage and Security in Kids Through Conversations About Mortality

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, host Dr. Kathy explores the challenging topic of death and how to discuss it with children. Drawing from personal experience, she emphasizes the importance of preparing kids for the realities of life, including its inevitable end. The conversation is inspired by the documentary "Obit," where reporter Margalit Fox highlights that obituaries focus more on life than death. Dr. Kathy encourages listeners to consider writing their own obituaries while still alive as a way to reflect on their lives and values. Join us as we face the dark and find ways to talk about death in a constructive manner.
