I think you handled it well. There’s no need to get into too many details about death with a 3 year old.

That’s what I think. He is too young to be worrying about death. Let him have his childhood.

That’s a really tough subject to field @Qwerty , I think you made the right call for sure .

I’m sure your son will be ok. I think it’s a normal part of life… Realizing we don’t life forever. I think I remember when I realized that. My teacher told us the sun would expand and destroy the earth in millions of years from now lol.

I think the thought about heaven is more honest but i guess we cant discuss that here. saying we don’t really die. it makes sense.

I would tell my son my delusional theories haha. They don’t sound too bad.
Sorry 2 hear that he was traumatised.
I remember wen I was very young I used to believe dat it’s automatic to be pregnant wen an adult and that made me so scared.
