4. That's not right
The reality is that the parent is not there. The last thing a kid, or anybody, needs is a constant reminder that their parent is gone. They need help in adjusting and accepting that reality and learning to be happy and productive in spite of it. It's one thing to miss a parent on occasion, or kiss a picture goodnight, but otherwise the kids have to get on with life. I can't see how any professional would think a cardboard parent is a healthy idea.
