Annotation. A key comment after the release of Surviving Traumatic Grief Volume 1 - When Loved Ones Die in a Disaster was that more information was needed for parents and others caring for children and young people who have been bereaved in traumatic and disastrous circumstances. This volume aims to address this need.As with the first volume, this book is based on interviews held in 2011-2012 with 31 people who tragically lost loved ones three years earlier in the February 2009 Victorian bushfires. Health professionals also provide insightful responses to the themes and issues arising from the comments of parents and their children who contributed to this book.At the best of times, parenting is highly demanding and time consuming, requiring a lot of physical, emotional and mental energy. Trauma and grief are also highly demanding and time consuming. So, as one mother, Carol asks, "How, when you are so devastated and heartbroken yourself, how do you actually support your child when you haven't got the energy, you haven't got the will, you haven't the motivation?"
