Synopsis

Winner, 2018 Book Excellence Award

"An invaluable resource for parents, teachers, coaches, ministers, and anyone who has a teenager they love and want to help along the grief journey." - Glen Lord, President, Board of Directors, The Compassionate Friends

Teens are hurting.

While trying to make sense of an increasingly confusing and troubled world, teens get hit - again and again - with moves, separations, divorces, rejections, substance abuse, domestic violence, sexual abuse, illness, disability, and death.

Edgy, fun-loving, tech-driven, and seemingly indestructible, teens' souls are shaking. Gnawing questions surface from deep inside: "How did this happen? Why me? Is this my fault? What am I supposed to do? Who's next? Am I going to make it?"

Teen hearts are at stake. Each one is a priceless treasure. We can't afford to allow pain and loss to get the better of them.

What can we do?

Award-winning author and grief counselor Gary Roe wrote Teen Grief at the request of parents, teachers, coaches, and school counselors. Born of personal experience and more than three decades of interacting with grieving teens, this informative, practical handbook is replete with guidance, insight, and ideas for helping teens navigate the turbulent waters of loss. Though Teen Grief primarily focuses on losses due to death, the principles discussed can be applied to any loss a teen might be experiencing.

Teens are the future. If we can help them discover how to turn losses into gains and transform hardship into something productive, positive, and good, the ripple effects could be extraordinary. As they heal and grow, they can become the difference-makers this world so desperately needs.

Teens are hurting. They need us. They need you. It's time to help them heal.

Goodreads review by Petya on January 25, 2024

Fuck January for forcing me to seek out and devour this book. But on the other hand, it helped me sort out my conflicted head. Supporting a grieving teen as an adult when you only have your teen self as a reference is a difficult concept to begin to untangle. I needed this to at least choose an appr......more

Goodreads review by Amanda on October 30, 2017

A beautiful book for anyone who loves a grieving teen... as someone who loves several, I found this book helpful, practical and inspiring. It was also a realistic but comforting reminder to not try to do what is ultimately beyond our means- anyone’s means but God’s ability to provide true peace- but......more
