So nice that you did that with your daughter, Mark. I've never done that with my kids, except when it was their own grandpa. Kids do need to learn about the whole life cycle, not just the happy events. Shiva is a normal Jewish event; it shouldn't be adults-only. Even if, technically, your 12-year-old is a Jewish adult.
