Separation and Loss FAQs
Is separation different from loss?
Separation is considered a form of loss, after the initial shock, you can go through a cycle of emotions; these can go from denial through to anger, emptiness, depression and acceptance.
Why do children behave differently in the same situation?
It is important to understand that regardless of the situation, a child might be as developmentally advanced as another child of the same age. There are no two people alike, as such, no two children will react the same way.
How do children get affected by triggers?
Reactions and behaviours can be triggered by several things, especially during any difficult moment in life – this also happens with children. Some common triggers are smells and sounds which can bring back memories that hurt them and bring out negative reactions.
Is this course beneficial for teachers?

Loss and separation can be very tough to go through, especially as a child, and they need all the support available. Teachers can help mediate their feelings and behaviours and help children get back in control of their emotions and actions.
