If we’d only had this information before our fifteen-year-old son Jeff took his own life...” —Eric Hipple, former Detroit Lions quarterback and Suicide Prevention Advocate “Teen Grief Relief is a moving, must-have book, written by that most unusual breed of experts — those who have been there. I wish I’d had it when my brother died.” — Elizabeth DeVita-Raeburn, sister of Ted, whose life was loosely portrayed in the John Travolta made-for-TV movie, The Boy in the Plastic Bubble.

Excellent book both for parents and teens
As a Psychologist I found this book by Dr. Heidi and Dr. Gloria to be the best reference for a beginning understanding of the complex world of teen grief. I have suggested it to many of my clients and to my college students. If you are a teen or wish to help a teen coping with the loss of a loved one, this book is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great ideas to start conversations

Written for parents helping their children, a powerful introduction with catch the attention of all parties involved. The contradictions inherent in the parent/teen communication process are brought to light. A moderately high reader would do well with this book. A journal is encouraged, even if the entries become irregular over time. Practical tips populate the text. A graffiti wall in honor of the departed is an interesting concept.

I use this book with teenagers who have lost a loved one to cancer. It is a wonderful book. I use it as a resource but also have recommended that my clients and their parent take it home to read. It is a perfect book to normalize a teenagers feelings going through such a difficult time.

MOTHER DEAR

(Oh mother dear, I miss you like never before)

Where are your warm hugs?
Have they cracked and wilted in your empty arms

Where are your sweet smiles?
Have they dried and shriveled on your cold lips

Where are your funny jokes?
Have they turned to dust and lay at your feet
To whom will comfort me?
To whom will dry my tears?
To whom will I lay my head,
When no one else is near?

(Oh mother dear, I need you more than ever)

Where have you been?
Have you finally been laid to rest

Where are you now?
Are you flying high with the angels?
OR
Are you down in the deep dark well?

Grieving Mom
5.0 out of 5 stars Gives great advise to parents with grieving teens
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2007
I was given this book by a friend from The Compassionate Friends support group about 3 months after my 17 month old son died unexpectedly. My surviving daughter had just turned 13 years old. The book was very easy to read and understand and gave great suggestions on trying to help a grieving teen regardless of the circumstance. Many grieving teens also have passages in the book that are helpful for me as a mother to try to understand my daughter's struggles. The main thing is knowing that we as parents can't know our teens pain if we haven't experienced the loss of a sibling when we were teens. We have to validate and acknowlegde their pain and suffering. That is very important!
