Using thanatological principles, it draws from different disciplines to document children and young people's encounters with other lives, including: communicating with the deceased in waking and dream life; having near death experiences (NDEs); and remembering past lives. The implications of including non-corporeal continuation in the curriculum are explored. While challenges are acknowledged, the paper argues that the topic contributes to a meaningful curriculum by foregrounding a child-centered approach which privileges their voice(s) and agency.

A serial pathway emerged: lower meaning in life associated with greater perceived cognitive aging, which predicted higher intolerance of uncertainty, followed by greater death and dying anxiety.
