A family is visiting the grandmother before her medically assisted death due to extreme chronic pain. Should the children be explained to what’s going on before they say goodbye? If so, is a book made for children possibly a helpful way to approach this topic?

The “kids can’t learn about X” arguments never seem fully thought out to me, more like reactions to triggering words. Sex ed, gay people, euthanasia, etc.

You can barely explain death to a child, but you're going to explain all the details for assisted death, looks more like indoctrination

The state deemed the treatment of your grandmother too expensive so they opted for assisted death instead
