Question by girl with the face: Atheist may i ask how do you explain death to your children?
How do you tell a little child when there is a death in the family. I mean as a Christian i believe in heaven and that’s what most people tell there kids, but even after that its still hard to explain to them. So how does a child “under stand that they will never wake up”. Truthfully is it hard. Are the children afraid of death?

THANKS FOR THE ANSWERS… 🙂
