-Students' answers will vary,simply because there are a number of skills and strategies that one can employ when helping someone deal with a recent death.A strong answer will address the fact that there are several approaches,and no single approach will be beneficial to everyone.Following is a sample response:
-Helping someone to cope with a loss is a challenging task,simply because grieving is such a personal process.There are many strategies that I can use to help my friend Taban.
-I need to socially decenter and think about how I would want to be approached if I were to lose a family member.
-It will also help for me to be other-oriented and think about what would help Taban the most.
-Through experience,I know that he likes to talk about his problems and just have someone listen to him.
-Often,simply listening to someone is a great way to help them grieve,so since that is what usually helps Taban the most,I'll start by expressing my willingness to listen.
-After listening,I need to reaffirm how much I care about him and give him a hug.
-Then,I need to tell him that I am here to support him and will help him with whatever he needs.
-Sometimes the use of humor is an ok tactic to use.
-Since Taban is generally a funny guy,if the opportunity arises,maybe I can make him laugh or smile.I should only use humor after gauging how Taban is feeling,though.
-Above all,I need to keep in mind that the best thing I can do is to simply be physically present for Taban.
-If my plan doesn't seem to be working,just being there for Tabin,using confirming listening skills,and giving him a hug is what is best to do.
