[quote=Anonymous]My 5 year old is definitely talking about it a lot more lately. We explained that the body stops working but also that people (or animals) "go back to being part of the earth" when they die and how we can always be with them because they are in our hearts and on our minds. He seems to find comfort in that description. When I was putting up old family photos of my grandparents who have died, he surprised me with "don't worry, Mommy, we are their future." I think he got it from a show but I thought it was a pretty good perspective![/quote]
