Expressions Of Grief

Society and culture have created scripts (i.e., social norms) that dictate the ways in which we are to grieve. These scripts also prescribe the unique ways in which men and women are expected to respond to grief.

Some examples for this type of grieving can be things like loss from a miscarriage, infertility, or even when giving a child for adoption.
