Talking about death without religion/after life


My four year old daughter keeps talking about death, and getting really sad. She'll say things like "I don't want to die" and "I want to be with you forever". We've tried to direct her to thinking about living a good life and enjoying your family and friends, but it's not working. She's learned that exercise makes you healthy, and that being unhealthy will lead to death, so now she says things like "you need to yoga so you don't die".We don't believe in the afterlife, but I'm halfway tempted to tell her we all go to heaven at this point. Any recommendations? Books? Thoughts? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2trT5Tb
