What happens when your child unexpectedly has to face the worst of life’s challenges? There are hundreds of parenting books out there, but there are some things you can never prepare your kids for.

Grace was 10 when her father died. Since then, she’s had to process her own grief, as well as manage the feelings of people around her. Because as Grace says, people don’t know how to talk about death. 

In this episode of Navigating Parenthood – Talking to teens, brought to you by HCF, we hear from Grace and her mum Julie on how to talk about the teenage experience of grief and resilience, and what happens when your family unit changes forever.
