Be
Honest
- It is essential that children be told the truth,
difficult as the truth can be.
- Provide information. The younger the child, the simpler the information.
- Suicide and murder are especially difficult to explain to children. It
may be helpful to consult a professional or read literature on the topic
before talking to your child.
