Hi all,
Wondering how or if anyone has suggestions for how to stop doing this! I have a 7 month old little guy at home, and ever since we've had him, I internalize everything that surrounds kids being hurt in the news, movies, etc...
I just read an article in the paper today about a daycare worker that killed a 16 month old because he was being "noisy". She threw him to the floor so hard that it fractured his skull. The poor baby crawled with his blanket to a bouncy chair and died.
This is still making me cry when I think about that poor little one with his blanky, hurt.... My heart is just broken!
I'll stop before I start to cry again.
Do you eventually become numb to this stuff? Or do I just stop reading those stories? Or am I nuts? I just keep thanking God that I can go home and hug my son tonight.
