[quote=Anonymous]Around age 4. We didn't say grandpa is in heaven because we're agnostic. We said he died and it was very sad and that we miss him a lot sometimes, but also that he lived a long, good life and that death is part of life. I don't know that she understood it 100% but she got used to the idea. She did go through a period of talking about how death scared her and not wanting us to die, but we reassured her that we are still young and very healthy and we aren't going anywhere anytime soon. We didn't use any books or any other resources. We were just honest but supportive and reassuring, and we let her know that if she ever needs to talk about it, we're hear for it.[/quote]
