A colleague of mine has asked whether my children are obsessed with death. His ds has just started school, and unfortunately one of the pupils in an older class has died. This seems to have prompted a lot of concern about death in general, and especially about when his parents will die, and what will happen etc.
Apart from general reassurance, "most mummies and daddies don't die until they are very old", does anyone have any useful stategies please?
