A few days ago I had to tell an eight year old that his aunt is dying. He cried so hard and just couldn’t stop saying show it’s too sad when people die. I wanted him to not be so hyper focused on his pain without telling him so. I offered him a tissue, a Starry, and a truffle. It took his mind away from it enough that we could talk about what he was feeling. So basically distraction and/or calming tactic?
