Two schoolboys from Belfast describe how they are dealing with the pain of losing loved ones.
Daniel hopes that by speaking out he can help other children dealing with grief."It doesn't really matter what you do, it just helped to keep busy and move on with your day.
"Their world was turned completely upside down, and I guess school was their little bit of normality and routine, and that helped. "I've also learned we need to take it at their pace. In terms of counselling and other services, we've been very much guided by when the children felt ready."Sometimes as adults and even as teaching staff we might feel uncomfortable talking about it because we don't want to upset them - but I've learned it's good to talk when they're ready to do so.
