..no you’re right, Zee..teachers aren’t prepared to deal with stuff like this at all but most schools/colleges do have student councillors as well who can help, there have unfortunately been several student deaths at our local upper school ..car accidents/illnesses...and some of them I’ve personally known as have my boys and actually I think the biggest thing that does help is that it’s a grief that’s felt by all of the students... and Smudgie’s daughter’s friends will probably be one of the biggest comfort to her right now and I think being around them will help her a lot...
