[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother was murdered 20 years ago when I was a tween. Yes my parents have moved on but the pain is still there. I think about him everyday. The question my parents struggle with the most is when asked how many children do you have ? Even 20 years later it's a tough question to answer. Do you say 1 which would be me or do you say 2 but we lost 1. Usually they say 1 but for the first 10 years they always said 2.[/quote] I’m so sorry for your loss. DH’s sister was murdered by her spouse four years ago. His mother didn’t know how to answer the how many children do you have question until she heard a bereaved friend’s answer. She now says, “ I have 3 children; one is deceased.” Perhaps this would work for your parents. [/quote] I'm so sorry for you both. All the best.[/quote]
