If there’s one thing all widowed people probably have in common, it’s the chorus of opinions from friends, family, co-workers, and sometimes complete strangers on their grieving timeline – mostly that they’re not over it fast enough, and can’t you smile already, and stop ruining Christmas for the kids! THINK OF THE KIDS! Since cursing everyone out and telling them to stay out of your business isn’t ideal, Leslie will share some suggestions – from research to anecdotal examples – of ways to respond, as well as some clinically-accepted info about complex grief. Discussion encouraged.
