Please add anything you feel is missing I really feel like there needs to be a section on coping with death or different ways to find help when dealing with death. (Clbratt (talk) 22:41, 23 March 2009 (UTC)). I will make it, I have all of the information, I just don't want it to get deleted right after I make it (Clbratt (talk) 23:22, 23 March 2009 (UTC)).
Here is some information regarding phases of grief, part of the coping stage. 1. Shock: disbelief, unreal 2. Denial: denying that your spouse is actually gone, that it is not true. 3. Bargaining with a higher power to make it all go away. 4. Guilt: difficult stage to get through, you start to blame yourself for the death. You feel as if you did something differently they would still be here. but everyone is responsible for their own actions, there is no way you made anyone do anything. This stage would be helpful to have a friend to talk too, to help you understand it is not your fault. 5. Anger: not always a phase, some find it easier to move on if they are angry at the spouse for leaving, but often it leads to feeling guilty for being angry at them, if the phase doesn't start to occur, don't worry yourself, you can skip this phase. 6. Depression: varies, it comes and goes, give it as much time as possible to heal. While dealing with depression stages try to stay clear of the child and not let them know you’re breaking down. Remember be strong for the child. 7. Resignation: finally believe the reality of the death 8. Acceptance and Hope (“moving on”): you finally understand it can never be the same, but you have to move on in life with a meaning and a purpose. (Bmhans3 (talk) 22:01, 30 March 2009 (UTC)) The summary does not relate to the topic at hand -- "Humans increased the number of extinctions in recent times, one cause being, for example, the destruction of ecosystems as a consequence of the spread of industrial technology.[1]" Not only is human causes of extinction events completely unrelated, but it doesn't sound completely neutral. This should be removed. --Andreas |

Get rid of permanent and irreversible. Then get rid of inevitable and put natural in place of that. 2603:6000:AB00:12CC:453:FAA9:D63A:6ADC (talk) 00:51, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Permanent
It should not have the word permanent because should only just be cessation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Earthsmoke91 (talk • contribs) 03:05, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for starting a discussion, Earthsmoke91. Why do you think it should "only just be cessation"? Do you think, for example, that death is not permanent? WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:02, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
