People who say this are people who are trying to justify their actions so they don't feel ashamed of themselves.

Like my short story idea of an adult Calvin being a triple amputee Iraq War veteran dealing with PTSD and a nervous breakdown after his high school sweetie Susie married Moe and he found the remains of Hobbes in a box in his parent's garage?

People who say this are simply back packers who think they;re big men for jumping into a conversation that doesn't involve them.

I laughed too hard at this.

For real though, how would CE answer these questions:

"Where's mommy?"
"Why?"
"Where is she now?"
"What does dead mean?"

How would you explain the concept of death and your beliefs about the afterlife to a child whose mother died in childbirth?

Of course. If you don't admit there is a problem, then you can't fix it. Isn't it better to be honest with your child so you can give them the tools and coping mechanisms they'll need to live in society that treats attractiveness as a currency? Lying helps in the immediate moment, but ends up hurting more than it helped in the long run.

I feel bad because this was my exact first thought upon seeing the topic title. In my defense, I just watched some episodes of Game of Throne last night where Cersei was in her prime bitchiness.

She died from child birth, you got at least two years before a 2 word sentence like "Where mommy?" to come up. Thanks google!

What has religion have anything to do with answering your child about her dead mother?

Religious people can say the whole "God needed her in heaven so she's always watching over you in a magical kingdom in the sky etc. etc." and really soften the blow.

Yeah lying to your children really sounds like it could soften the blow, but you don't need religion as an excuse for that though.
