Workshop 6: Grief and Loss Reflection Name: ____________________

Reflect on the workshop material and answer the following questions:

1. Loss is often a trigger for teen depression and suicidal ideation. You are a CYC working with a teen that has experienced a significant loss (the death of a friend or parent, a natural disaster, homelessness, and so on). What supports would you recommend that can be offered by family, friends, school, and community.

 

2. Watch “The Family I Lost in North Korea”. While watching the clip, make a list of feelings and coping mechanisms you think Joseph demonstrated.

 

3. Grieving is not a task but a process. Generally, it is agreed that it has five stages: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. For the following clients who have experienced a specific loss, discuss how each client may express themselves in each stage of grief:

·

o A youth placed in a foster home because parents cannot handle him.

o A six-year-old going through a divorce of the parents.

o A youth who moved to a new city and, therefore, lost all friends to hang out with.

o A youth whose only sibling moved out so the youth is now the only one home.

o A 16-year-old youth who moved out on his or her own for the first time but does not like the new dwelling.

o A youth who comes home from school to find himself abandoned by parents for three weeks now.

o A youth who experiences his or her only parent in the hospital seriously ill.

o A youth placed in foster care because his only parent has been placed in long-term prison

Watch the Grieving Process: Coping with Death.

The Grieving Process: Coping with Death

The family I lost in North Korea. And the family I gained | Joseph Kim.

Thoughts to Reflect on:

Joseph was born and raised in North Korea. He went through a famine and watched his father die from starvation. Hunger is humiliation. He was left alone and decided on the long trip to China. He was sent to USA through a underground organization. Through the actions of his foster father, Joseph realized that he needed to concentrate on his studies. Throughout this time, he showed many resiliencies. He maintains that hope is necessary to survive. Hope and people helping is necessary in order to achieve. He stresses to help each other will lift each other and give hope a chance.
