Have You Lost a Parent in Childhood?
Hi everyone 🤍
I’m currently recruiting participants for my Master’s dissertation study exploring the experiences of adults who lost a parent during childhood and were raised by a surviving parent who was supportive in both their grief and upbringing. There is a real gap in research in this area, and I hope this study can contribute to a deeper understanding of these experiences.
I also have lived experience of this myself, so I approach this research with great care, empathy, and sensitivity.
To take part, you would need to:
• Be aged 18 or over
• Have experienced the loss of a parent during childhood (at least 5 years ago)
• Feel emotionally safe discussing your grief and relationship with your surviving parent
The study involves an online interview, ideally taking place this weekend or next weekend, so please let me know if this timing could work for you.
If you contact me on private message I will also send over my study poster, which includes additional details about the research and university information for validity and reassurance.
If this resonates with you and you’d like to contribute to meaningful research in this area, please feel free to message me for more information.
Thank you so much 🤍
Emma 🙂
