While it's true that people often don't remember much from their first years of life, this is definitely one of those traumatic experiences that she will very likely have memories of. Regardless, her love for her sibling and her grief if she is lost will just as real whether or not she will remember it when she's grown up. That's entirely besides the point. I think seeing parents who apparently aren't overwhelmed by grief at the loss of a child will be very confusing to a three year old. I strongly advise against hiding any feelings. | |
