OMG!! I can't believe that I missed it! I knew there was something I needed to watch on TV last night but couldn't remember what it was so I watched a movie instead. it wasn't even good! darnit!
From what I watched last week, I think they have very good counseloors at sagewalk. These people know when to get down to the kid's levels and they know how to talk to them to get them to open up. It isn't easy to get a kid to open up, in fact, it's one of the hardest things to accomplish with troubled kids. These kids have locked their pain inside of them for quite some time and they put that part of themselves into a shell where they're kept safe from more pain.
My daughter is just now beginning to open up to counsellors and it shows. It's been almost 4 years. It's a long process to get there but once they do open up, the healing begins and these kids stand a chance at a good adult life.
I'm so angry at myself for missing the show last night!! This is one show I never wanted to miss since I can relate.
