Myndtalk With Dr. Pamela Brewer

One of the most painful experiences for a parent is the loss or fear of loss of a child.  There are times - albeit potentially unwitting - that parents see the next child as a replacement child. Educator/author Barbara Jaffe, a “replacement child,” discovered that the barriers to acceptability were high.  Barbara was born to fill the vacancy left by her little brother who died at the age of two. This conversation tells the multitude of people who have been 'replacement children’ that they, too, can find hope and healing.
