DEATH IS HARD TO LIVE WITH

Rating:
Summary: Teens learning to cope with death.
Review: In the book "Death is Hard to Live With", they have a lot of true short stories. Most of the stories are written by teenagers explaining the death of a relative or close friend. For instance, one girl lost her mother at the age of twelve. As the years went on she felt worse and worse about her life, she then went to see a psychiatrist to keep her in line. Many kids that shared their stories were telling about the help they either had or need. After a hard death, especially as a teen, you usually start feeling hopeless in your life which could lead to suicide. That is the last answer doctors want to hear as a result. This book is to motivate you to change your life into a better situation after a death has occured. Learning to cooperate with death can be hard and challenging at times, but reading this book points out many different ways to cope with it. There are different alternatives other than hurting or harming oneself. This book provides true stories that may be similar to a situation you are going through. I really enjoyed this book, and thought it would be great for others. It was nice because I could relate to some of the stories that were told. It was fun to compare the different choices we took to get through the situations.
