family grief
Kin's shared sorrow
Family grief is sorrow experienced collectively by a family, typically following a death, divorce, or other significant loss affecting the household.
The phrase emphasizes grief as a shared experience rather than individual mourning: The family grief after losing their mother brought the siblings closer together.
It can also describe grief caused by family dysfunction or estrangement.
