THINGS TO AVOID SAYING OR DOING AT THE TIME OF MOURNING

~I know how you feel
~It's part of God's plan
~Your young, and you can marry again
~Look at what you have to be thankful for
~They are in a better place
~Now you can put this behind you, and move on
~Call me if you need anything
~Doing all the talking
~Statements that begin with "You should..."
~Making decisions for them
~Discouraging all emotions or expressions of grief
~Promoting your own values and beliefs
~Encouraging them to be dependent on you
~Dominating their time
~I am sorry for your loss
