RE: Children are the most affected by the crisis in Venezuela

in #familyprotection6 years ago (edited)

Great article, @jesusjacr.
I live in Cumaná, my wife is a elementary school teacher and we see on a daily basis the heartbreaking results of this abomination called revolution.
One more aspect we can mention in your exposition is Recreation.
Venezuelan kids are slowly but steadily being deprived of one of the most important aspects of their lives: playing, sharing with friends, going to places.
The psychological scars of this constant adaptation to limitations and negations is going to be life-lasting.
No matter what people may say about children's resiliency and creativity to make a jolgorio even out of tragedy, we are witnessing dramatic emotional changes in kids who feel there is nothing they can do in this country. On top of that they watch tv (maybe not for too long) and see "normal" kids in "normal" places enjoying life while they brace for ever stronger winds.
