I wonder how much of this, if any, is due to the fact that a lot of children may have faced the death of an animal, perhaps a dog but maybe a hamster etc. and have yet to live through the death of a close human. If so, animals dying is visceral, real and happening. Whereas human death is this abstract that they can't even really empathize with as it is so unsupported by any lived experience. |
