Talking to a child about life and death is a crucial step, because these questions cannot be excluded from the reality of our young people. Inevitably, sooner or later, they will confront these concepts. The approach we take to these topics must be artful, responsive to their understanding, and calming. In the absence of such an approach, children may find themselves unprepared and vulnerable to these issues that may arise occasionally, and thus face difficulties and possible suffering.

Opt for the book What exactly is life & death? to explain to your children through appropriate terms what life is and what death is.
