Children today are growing up in a very complex world. Children's health and well-being are continuously influenced by violence, divorce, family transience, environmental concerns, terrorism within and outside of our country's borders, and most recently, threats of and acts of war. There is a lack of comprehensive health education curricula which address the specific area of loss surrounding these events.

520 $a This study investigated the perceived needs of fourth grade elementary school children regarding selected questions concerning loss. Ninety seven fourth grade girls and boys at a suburban Long Island public school district participated in the study. A three question survey was developed to collect data gathered from children through written responses, and to identify common themes or individual responses about their understanding of, and perceived needs in learning about loss. Through a qualitative content analysis this study highlighted several key points. First, both girls and boys defined loss in many terms other than, and including loss through death. Second, relationship loss and loss of objects that held meaning for the children were the most common responses of the children. When asked what they knew about loss, the children first identified the emotions and feelings around loss, second the causes and consequences of lass, and third placed value judgments on loss. In responding to what they wanted to know about loss, the children asked: first, why it exists at all, second, more about the emotional reactions to loss, and third, the possibilities of future loss experiences. This study revealed a willingness on the part of the children to give voice to their many thoughts and questions surrounding issues of loss in a public school health education setting. Recommendations are made for a more in-depth study to facilitate our understanding of the nature of loss and its correlates among 9--10 year old children.
