Discussing Suicide of Another Student with your Child **Trigger Warning**

Mourning/Loss

Hi Everyone, my daughter is in high school and yesterday it was announced at school that another student that she knew fairly well, unalived himself Monday evening. She is so sad and did speak with grief counselors at school yesterday. I wanted to find out if anyone has dealt with this and what are the right words as a parent to help her process this situation. If you know of any good parent books on this subject I am happy to get that too. I did not know this student, but I am so sad for this family. This is just heartbreaking to discuss with the kids! I greatly appreciate anyone’s help on this situation.
