Family dog is dying - What to tell a 2 year old?
#8
I feel your pain. My youngest son is nearly two, and trying to explain anything like this to him would be a nightmare. He is at the stage where he clearly understands far more than he lets us know, and so would pick up far more from us than we would necessarily want him to know. Having said that- for me the best course would be, as suggested above, a frank but simple explanation. Tears from both sides doubtless, but better than hiding the truth from him.

With all the best at this difficult time
