We’re disappearing: Children, beware, because we adults obviously can’t

Children, forgive us. Forgive us for not knowing how to raise you, how to educate you, and sometimes how to love you. You rebel – we don’t hear you, you suffer – we don’t notice you, you “drool”, you disappear – we are looking for you. In fact, even if you don’t forgive us, there is nothing, the more important thing is to take care of yourself, no matter how hard it is to try everything in life and stay sane. If possible without straining yourself.

Take care, both yourself and each other. Be sensible in this reality full of adults who haven’t learned how to take care of themselves, let alone you. Sometimes they are your teachers, educators. The ones you meet at the beginning of your maturity and leave traumas in some of you. They leave traumas in the “different” children – those who differ in appearance, views on the world, temperament, soul, origin, problems of any nature. Remember – no one can be in your shoes, although they should at least try, because you are like a blank sheet of paper to write on. Your story, your values. You don’t feel it now, but over the years this will be your ready-made, formed worldview and you will approach everything in life based on your experiences in kindergarten and school. And of course, based on the environment at home, which one day, consciously or not, you will most likely aspire to.

And you, respected adults who interact with children every day, I’ll just remind you that you are the ones who really need to forgive. Because you were also children, you made mistakes, you had enough time to “fix” yourself, to get on the rails of life. But they were not yet adults and had not seen what you have accomplished. And if a child needs a hand to lift him up, give him one. Even if it means sometimes skipping a school rule for the sake of completing your mission. To make this growing living being a real, dignified, educated person with a chance in life.
