There is something very decent and good about your bearing witness for this little girl.Trying to understand what her life must have been like.
Little children have big lives and so often adults prefer denial to facing the horror that a child feels.
I don't know what interventions happened for this child, but for sure she was labelled and assessed and diagnosed. That is usually as far as it goes.
Clearly, she could not contain her pain and acted out.
For one mother to talk to her son about the hard world that some kids have can only be good. For us to talk about it and not just let it slide by is one more step forward for children.
I am sad sometimes at the passion shown for children in Africa and elsewhere, when there are thousands of children who live in hell's like this little girl. There are pitifully few resources other than expensive testing and assessment.
ZThanks for sharing this Deb.
