Abstract

Several studies have shown that girls are close to their mothers. Therefore, losing their mothers may cause grief for them. This was a phenomenological study using the IPA method and aimed to explore and describe the grief experienced by teenage girls due to the death of their mothers. The participants in this study were three teenage girls aged 13-15 years who had experienced the death of their mothers within the past two years. The results showed that the participants experienced deep grief following the death of their mothers, accompanied by various complex feelings and changes in their lives. However, the participants saw the grief as a valuable lesson. This learning showed that they were able to adapt or make positive changes after the death of their mothers, ultimately leading to acceptance.
