Main Article Content
Abstract
Childhood bereavement has been a matter of intense discussion among the Palliative care providers. Yet, there
is little evidence base behind the notions, which are prevalent among the population in general, and Palliative
Medicine providers in particular. Among the masses, there is still prevalence of ‘protecting the child’ phenomenon. Beliefs, like this, create confusion among the providers while recommending the strategy while dealing with
the bereaved children. There is definite need to develop plans to deal with this difficult problem, while recognizing
some other issues like culture and spiritual mechanisms.
