[quote=Anonymous]I was 16 when my father died suddenly (divorced parents, both remarried). I...processed weirdly and probably should have done therapy at the time. I missed only a half day of school for it and just kept trucking along with my high-level school work. Like I went to chem lab the next day. The whole situation was very bizarre, and I found out a lot of stuff about my father after the fact that likely colored my romantic relationships. This is a long way of saying that this will be a process for your daughter. She likely won't know what she needs. For those concerned about money, I did get my father's social security til I turned 18. It was enough to help me not have student loans (but I was in state and it was the 90s/early 2000s). [/quote]
