I think four is a little young to tell her. I would wait until she could fully grasp the idea of anencephaly. because kids when they are young will continue to ask until they fully understand and at young ages it's hard to tell them without showing pictures...that's a bit too graphic. just make sure she knows about her younger siblings and don't let her forget. Kids develop at different ages. when you think your daughter could mentally grasp the concept then you should explain it so you do not stress her out by trying to explain it so she understands too early in her life.
