- Comment on What's the best way to tell a kid that their dog died? 16 hours ago:
It think it’s important to plant this seed early, I would always joke about how the dogs are here “for a good time not for a long time” when my kids were growing up, it also encouraged them to live in the moment with our pets. Speak openly about the dog aging like you might to an adult peer, that way your child learns these scary thoughts are safe to have and you share them too so they can come to you for comfort. Obviously this is age appropriate advice little kids don’t need that last part.

I’d need more context to give you a real answer but personally:
Do it like any “we need to talk” adult talks, keep it simple explain what happened, give age appropriate details, and tell them it’s ok to cry/be mad/be sad for a long time, etc. encourage them to express their feelings in that moment and then in recovery share with them when something reminded you of the pet or things related to the pet, it seems counter intuitive but they are having these same thoughts and feelings and by saying them out loud you’re saying it’s ok to feel this and we can grieve together.
Hope this helps

Just act like you already knew that then impress someone else with it later so you 1) don’t give the person who told you any validation and 2) get that validation for yourself from someone else

You’re both right these things BOTH suck. We need to live in a world where we have enough disposable income to treat the occasional medical emergency or ongoing supportive care of our pets, like arthritis meds or special diets so they don’t just have to die and it would be nice too if vet care was significantly more affordable.

The types of people who say this stuff are solipsists if that helps. THEY can’t personally go see it land so from their perspective it’s fake

I went to community college to finish highschool and it had a lot of programs to help immigrants get educated. Being 17 I was bored and doodled in my text books a lot and then gave all my books to a very grateful young African man I can only imagine what he thought of all my insane captions and drawings lol

No they’d look like their skin was shrink wrapped to their skeleton on top of having no hair. They’d probably leave off the ears too

This is probably the best option for the social worker partner since social work is largely about knowing the laws and culture which you won’t know as an immigrant
