do you think it is easer for the child when a parent dies when they are a toddler or a teen?

I dint know why your asking the question,
But in my opinion I feel it does not matter how old you are at either age.
A child at a toddler age up too teenage age even after that as an adult it still hurts your still human.
As a toddler a child only wants mom in most cases. they might forget sooner than a teenager. But as they grow to really understand what happen and realize mom not around they begin to wish they had there mother and live with that pain of not having a mother,
As a teen you might understand a little more but the pain is still there at what ever age a mother is always the most sacred and is always missed at any age so I guess my answer to you is there is no choice as to what is worse .

As a toddler, and I say that because the memory of the hurt and pain will be forgotten and it happened to my cousin he was about 16 months and he has no memory which still aches at his heart (he lost his mom) and what he has to contend with is wondering and living on through pictures and stories but I lost my dad when I was 13 and by then I was used to him coming home and bringing me cracker-jacks back when they had cool prizes and all but definitely as a toddler. By the way I hope that you haven't experienced this and if so I send my condolences.

It is either better. I think a child always need their parents to know their identity and where they come from-to know who they are. But if you have to choose one or the other, I'd say to be less painful when the child is a toddler, so he can grow up with feelings with another guardian as a replacement mother.

i'd say when the child is a toddler only because at this point not only have you lost your parent but you have no memory of them. at least a teen though its still hard for them to lose a parent at least they have memories to look back on that are their own. a toddler will only now what others tell them.

I think it is easier on the toddler emotion-wise. As a teen, u know, love and feel attached to your parents. They are the ones u depend on and going on without one would be really hard.

TODDLER, the toddler would grow up without knowing, better than being a teen and knowing

toddlers, cuz there r not completely emotionally aware of their surroundings and they haven’t not spend much time with their parents...being a teenager you have lived with ur parents 4 like 13yrs n r so use to being around them...n teen years r hard cuz ur dealing with changes in ur body n ur developing both emotionally n physically n having to deal with some1 death, is not going to make life any easier.

never easy at any age,, at both those ages the kids need their parents for guidence and support,, if one is not there its hard to replace with a "so called figure" of that person,, kids remember when they need mom or dad and when theyre not there,, the kids know
