Scenario

When families disagree about reframing sudden loss as expected

Our adult children are angry with me and my husband because we're handling our son's sudden death by talking about all the signs we missed, and they think we're rewriting history instead of accepting that some things can't be predicted. They say we're making his death about our guilt instead of about him.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Parents and their surviving children are battling over whether the search for missed warning signs is a necessary part of meaning-making or a harmful denial of randomness and loss of control.
