For littles to talk about difficult topics (Trigger Warning)

Hi Melissa,

Sorry you're sad. I like movies when I'm sad too. They really help. I don't think hiding in the T's office is stupid. I think it's necessary. Sometimes.

Evan

Hi all,
Thanks M. My T said the same things so I 'm not going to. I just have to call big ones for big people things like driving.

Sad can be scary too. One says he is sad but T said he is really angry. Not good with words like that. Are you sad or angry?

We had confusing talk with T today. He had me look in mirror and describe what I saw. So I did. Then he took our picture. He said it was me but it wasn't. It was a big one. He said big one was his friend. We all wear glasses so people don't know who there. It's a rule. I don't need glasses to read. So I took glasses off and read from his book. Most of the words. Big one came but could not see the words without glasses. T said he wanted to talk about our experiments next time. Maybe I not do something right. Don't want to get anyone in trouble. He not mad. T never gets mad. Don't know what he says next time.

I was really upset yesterday and crying a LOT, because I had to wait SO long to get to do anything that's for ME because all those outside kids ALWAYS got to do stuff for SO MANY YEARS, and I had to just WATCH. ALL THE TIME. Sorry for yelling. I guess I'm still upset about it. I mean, it had to be that way THEN, but it doesn't have to be that way NOW.

I planned a trip with the husband guy where I could go snorkeling because it got so messed up on the other trip, and it sounded like a lot of fun, but then he started to talk about it where the outside boy could hear and I got so scared that he would decide to come too and then we wouldn't say that he couldn't come. And if he comes, then I won't get to be there and it's NOT FAIR!!

But the husband guy said later that he understands now and just he and I can go. I mean us and the husband guy. I still cried a lot though because I got SO scared that the whole thing would get RUINED.

They said I could write about it here because then they won't forget how important it is. Even if no one else understands.

Hi Bobby,

That was close! Everything almost got messed up. I'm glad the husband guy is helping you. Now you can go snorkeling. We've never done that. I bet it's fun

Evan

Hi Bobby,

We are glad that the husband guy helped you and that you will go snorkeling. We hope you have fun.

We went snorkeling once a long long time ago. And we don't even swim. A nice snorkeling teacher helped us. It was cool seeing all the fish and stuff underwater.

Thanks for being my friends, Evan and MD Kids.

Snorkeling IS fun, and you don't have to be able to swim. You just float along on top of the water and see cool stuff.

There's just hardly any room for ME in our life here. Almost everything we do is for others and not ME. So that's why I care so much about getting to be around when we're on a trip. And on the last trip, me and Sasha took turns a little bit better, I think. I just hate my life when we're home.

Maybe tomorrow morning we will walk down to the beach. I like to do that. Last week we walked down to the beach and there was a swing so we went on it. It was fun to swing and look at the ocean.

Bobby

That husband guy sounds kinda nice. Glad you stood up for yourself. Snorkeling sounds fun. Did you see pretty colored fish?

Hi Puddy,

He is kind of nice. But he doesn't usually know when it's me, so that's hard, and then when he figures it out, sometimes he kind of just leaves me alone because he's waiting for a grownup to come back or something. Like it's ok if we're on a trip and riding bikes and snorkeling, but if we're home, I don't think he wants me around.

I think he still thinks we're kind of like moods that will just pass if he waits long enough. That kind of hurts my feelings a lot, but I don't really know what to do about it. A lot of this stuff has been going on for years and years and I don't know how it can ever change. It makes me really sad.

Bobby
P.S. We saw pretty fish on the trip we just took a couple of weeks ago. The one I was talking about that I got upset about is going to be in December, if it happens. You have to go kind of far away for really good snorkeling.

Hi Bobby,

The bigs and youŕ husband guy needto STEP UP.

You're important too, you know. Sometimes I used to not let the body eat anything until they would listen to me and take it seriously. And now they listen just without any measures. But i still have to get loud sometimes. No messing around!
