The father of a little classmate of dd's (4 year olds) has died suddenly. The family are from overseas and leaving immediately - we will probably not see them again.
What, if anything, would you suggest I say to dd? She will notice that her classmate has left, but probably nothing more than that for now. The school does have quite a social bond, however, so she will find out about it in time from other children/parents. I also don't think something so tragic should go unmentioned - but that may be more for me than her. Advice?
