What do you say when your child is hurting over something that can’t be changed?
In this episode of the Foundation Worldview Podcast, Elizabeth Urbanowicz answers a heartfelt question from a parent whose six-year-old daughter feels lonely as an only child. While Scripture like Isaiah 41:10 offers comfort, this episode explores a more robust, biblical framework for walking children through suffering, disappointment, and unmet longings.
Elizabeth shares five practical, Scripture-rooted steps parents can use to help their children process pain without minimizing it—teaching them to trust God, grow in gratitude, and love others even in hard circumstances. While this episode focuses on loneliness, the principles apply to many forms of childhood suffering.
