I know, right? At the very least, why didn't they have special accommodations set up for him? I mean, some would argue that the Jedi Order isn't a daycare center and yadda yadda yadda, but FFS -- at the very least, don't they have separation/grief counseling?

Seriously, this to all of your comment, so very much.
