AI Grief Conversation Guides For Young Children: Talking About Death Without Avoiding It
The premise
AI can guide a parent through a grief conversation with a young child using developmentally appropriate language without euphemism that confuses or frightens.

Generate age-calibrated language that is clear (uses 'died', not 'went to sleep') and warm.
Suggest follow-up questions for the days after when the child returns to the topic.
