On Death and Dying

The Big Sister came up with a shocker this morning. What does dead mean?

Well, it's the opposite of living. (I'm not sure that worked too well as an explanation.) Why do you ask?

In that movie that [my 6 year-old uncle] talks about, there's a place where that guy goes, where he dies.

You mean Star Wars, where Darth Vadar kills Obi-Wan Kenobi?

Yeah.

Ah. Sometimes if a bad person hits someone so hard, they stop living. Uh. You know how Gaston wants to kill the Beast?

Gaston's not nice. Sometimes, Gaston picks up the Little Guy and throws him in the snow. [laughs, covering her mouth] That's funny.
