Ep 255: Sissy Goff: What Do I Say When Kids Ask About Death? | Levi + Jennie Lusko | Hey! It's The Luskos

About this episode

Your kid sobs one minute and asks to go play the next, and nothing is wrong with them. Counselor Sissy Goff explains why children grieve in doses, like holding their breath underwater, and why even a six-month-old feels the loss. Levi and Jennie share the ice rink moment when two-year-old Daisy spotted a girl with Lenya's hair, plus Levi's one complaint about Sissy's new book: it wasn't written 15 years ago. Bonus: slalom water skiing at 32 mph. Connect with us on social!
