to my grandson about his mother's death, I showed him a picture of Rachel on my knee and told him that just as he was her child, so she had been my child.
"Jacob," I said, "I'm so sorry that you lost your mother."
Avoiding eye contact and splitting his attention between a toy in his lap and a video, Jacob replied: "I'm sorry that your daughter died."
Jacob is five
