Supporting Bereaved Parents and Siblings
What impact does a child’s death have on family relationships? How might differences in the way mothers and fathers deal with bereavement contribute to increased marital tension? Why are bereaved siblings so deeply affected by the way their parents grieve? “An Intimate Loneliness” explores how family members attempt to come to terms with the death of an offspring or brother or sister. Drawing on relevant research and the authors’ own experience of working with bereaved parents and siblings, this book examines the importance of social relationships in helping parents and siblings adjust to their bereavement. The chances of making sense of this most distressing loss are influenced by the resilience of the family’s surviving relationships, by the availability of wider support networks and by the cultural resources that inform each’s perception of death. This book considers the impact of bereavement on self and family identity. In particular, it examines the role of shared remembering in transforming survivors’ relationships with the deceased, and in helping rebuild their own identity with a significantly changed family structure.
