- Summary:
- Psychiatrist Dr. Edward Mason, produced this sensitive film on bereavement. It shows four children aged three to eleven, who lost a family member through death. Skillfully interviewed by a pediatrician or a psychologist, the children reveal their fantasies, their fears and their grief. Angels Don t Have Headlights shows how the child s conception of death and the child s grieving process differ from those of an adult, and in fact, vary considerably with each developmental stage. It presents a model for clinician-child-family interaction where the professional has the opportunity to foster the emotional health of the young person. Of particular value is that the children are from diverse backgrounds and all are articulate. A unique training tool for mental health professionals and medical personnel studying and working with children.
