Apparently the mo...Sara Louise- It is so, SO sad!! Apparently the mother came in crying and horrified (who wouldn't?). There's not much that can be done on our end. I want to believe and hope this child and family will be able to get help for whatever is wrong. Sadly, however, I'm pretty sure the family lacks the proper resources (ie money and good insurance) to address the problem(s). The fact is that the majority of families have basic insurance or none at all. A shame that our health care system cannot help those who really, really need it. <br /><br />I really could go on and on, but, I'll stop there. The good news is that there are bright moments everyday and that does help ease the sorrow that the other situations cause.Habebihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03642788214480007420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351590581125983393.post-91579685281506366832010-10-21T13:23:58.779-05:002010-10-21T13:23:58.779-05:00That little pre-schooler is tragic.

I know I talk about the hazards of my job with a matter of factness to the stories- but, at the same time if I were to get upset, freaked out, it would be far too consuming. There has to be a certain detatchment in this job. <br /><br />That's not to say I don't care, because I do care very, very much. I think it's more of a coping mechanism. I have to let go to some extent and be detatched as these children are being influenced and formed outside of school in ways I cannot control.<br /><br />This job is so eye opening. While I am not naive and I knew of these issues at this school thanks to my friend and co-worker seeing it all play out while trying to do some good in the middle of all of it is, perhaps, teaching me more about myself, life, our culture, school system etc. <br /><br />There are moments when I wonder who exactly is getting the education here? ;-)<br /><br />I do plan on a lot of R&R including some cleaning up around here as I always feel a little better when my surroundings are straightened up. Hope all is well with you my fab friend. I will be emailing you soon!Habebihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03642788214480007420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351590581125983393.post-50953429833751695942010-10-21T09:20:29.500-05:002010-10-21T09:20:29.500-05:00Sarah- I don't envy you one bit.
