Hi everyone,
Hilda here your Counsellor.
During this pandemic of Covid 19 a lot has happened within the family set up!
On the positive side:
Many families have been United
Husbands & Wives have built a stronger relationship
Parents have created a safe space for their children to communicate, relate and bond
Children have opened up to their parents and learnt a lot from each other as siblings
And above all, family time with God has been amazing
BUT on the Negative side:
What about that spouse that has lost a soul- mate through death, separation, divorce, infidelity, rejection or even domestic violence?
What about that child that has been
Sexually abused, sadly by the person or people they trusted the most? It could have been by a father, a mother, a brother, a sister, an auntie, an uncle, a village chief, a police officer or even their pastor?
What about that child that has lost a parent/s or even a sibling/s?
What about that family that has lost it all through the natural calamities?
What about that child that has not talked to a friend/ classmate in weeks or even months?
What about that family that has spent days or even weeks without a meal?
What about the fate of children/ students who don't know when schools will reopen?
With all the uncertainties, confusion, worries, anxieties, mental stress and depression
Don't keep silent !!!!
