if you have a 5 year old daughter.
her rabbit died.
how would you tell her?
a) the rabbit is in a better place
b) the rabbit is just going to sit there and rot.
how would you teach your children with this existential question?
would you lie or tell the truth?
is it better to teach your children to conform or to resist ?

it is a good occasion to teach your daughter about life, and death
and she can learn how to deal with her emotions. kids need guidance.

You should also inform why it died?
