Ok, I am sorry to intrude because I am not a parent yet. I guess I just find it unconscionable the way some people, especially some professionals, treat children and their problems in a dismissive manner. These are behaviours that could well have detrimental effect on a child's emotional growth and ability to cope and prosper as they get older, and should be taken seriously. It is hard for a child to articulate and understand the sometimes overwhelming and undefinable emotions and feelings they are having. They need to be listened to. JYL, Dinah and AuntieMel, your kids are lucky to have you!
Sorry for the intrusion.
