It leads me to imagine whomever writing this quickly finishing up their morning journal and adding his/her own slick, yet unfounded thoughts to a widely fought-over topic. Essentially, the article does nothing more than re-hash a bunch of history.Milkbuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15779791825251435719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829599.post-75259947645011032252008-01-22T12:35:00.000-08:002008-01-22T12:35:00.000-08:00I agree with Anonymous Jan. 22, 2008 9:14 a.m. Ou...I agree with Anonymous Jan. 22, 2008 9:14 a.m. Our kids are dealing with Hamlet's death just fine (although Kai doesn't want to say "When Hamlet died"--he told me he prefers "When Hamlet--you know" and then he makes his eyes widen with the 'you know' because otherwise it makes him sad). Me, however--I get weepy every time I expect to see him where he no longer is.dgmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05784048338004578599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829599.post-91869301395270870142008-01-22T09:14:00.000-08:002008-01-22T09:14:00.000-08:00I agree with Larry as far as doing what you think ...I agree with Larry as far as doing what you think is best. We do not have pets, but our children have been to funerals at very young ages. Some people would disagree with their exposure of death at a young age. I think every family needs to deal with death in their own way. Children understand the cycle of life and are able to accept it much better than adults; when it is explained to them appropriately. Sooner or later, in one way or another, they will need to work it out in their own way. Parents seem to be the ones in angst over children's reactions more than anything!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829599.post-482871715882451172008-01-21T21:05:00.000-08:002008-01-21T21:05:00.000-08:00Slings: Some folks *have* signed their pets up fo...Slings: Some folks *have* signed their pets up for suspension. I think that a cats' identity relies so much on genetic make-up, though, that that game isn't worth the candle. Cloning might have been an option, I suppose, but, as much as I loved the special little guy, I'm not convinced that another Russian Blue would be noticeably different.<BR/><BR/>Larry: Thanks. It proved an interesting study in grief, at least. I learned that the disjunctions between what I expected and what I experienced proved most wrenching. His immobility didn't faze me, for instance; he's was a cat, after all. But finding him cold to the touch and not purring--that shook me up.<BR/><BR/>Anon: Thanks. It's not like I have a lot of experience in these sorts of things, so I was glad I thought of something that seemed to help the kids cope. They've done really well.<BR/><BR/>Amaduli: Naw. I face nothing more than the usual march of time. Seeing death so close at-hand does make a guy reflect, though.Tom W.
