Abstract
Many children experience mourning and lament from death without having acquired the skills that are necessary to overcome these specific situations. Furthermore, they may not have any support on this matter with the danger to develop psychological issues in relation with grief and mourning. Therefore, it is very important for parents, teachers and therapists to recognize that there is high risk that can lead to complicated grief. Also, it is essential to take into account the child’s developmental stage and to communicate in open channel so children will be able to express their feelings and emotions. In any case it is very important to help them encounter the felling of loss and learn to live with it.
