DS, 13, lost one of his close friends tragically on Thursday. He was stabbed along with his mother..So so brutal.
I pretty much can't pull myself together but I really need to help DS but I'm unsure how.
The other kids in their friendship group seem to be crying/angry, but my son seems to be going through his every day motions as normal but in a kind of daze.
I myself can't eat, sleep or stop crying but I know I need to today, which is why I am asking for advice.
I check on DS regularly, tell him to come to me if he needs me, that he doesn't need to be brave etc etc. This is really all I can do isn't it?
School have counsellors in.
I'm just aware of the lasting impact this is going to have on him and want to handle it correctly.
