Tugovanje u djece zbog gubitka člana obitelji

Unfortunately, hard living situations are unavoidable for every human individual, and we meet them sooner or later, but mostly start at the earliest age. This graduate thesis deals with the theme of death and mourning in humans, especially in children. The thesis covers theoretical facts about child reactions to the death of a close person and the factors that influence these reactions. Also, this thesis classifies mourning according to the child's age, and the features of mourning. The models of the mourning phase suggested many of those who have dealt with these issues, but in this thesis two models have been elaborated for their similarity. In this thesis there are also described ways to help the child by close persons and educators.
