AnnotationThe impact of a loss is felt throughout the family system, with the parent-child relationship being particularly vulnerable. The experience of the parenting programme run by the Mount Carmel Hospice Evergreen Center in Columbus, Ohio, is presented. Responding to the concerns of grieving parents, a five-week parenting class was held. The quantitative and qualitative results are presented. The class also provided the opportunity for parents to enhance skills and learn about the need to respect the individuality and uniqueness of grief work with children. (RH).
