Verbalizing

MOM of 3
Today, for no apparent reason. Danae finally opened up and said "there is something that bothers me all day long and sometimes it makes me cry" When I asked her she said its a feeling, with further questioning she said its a sad feeling.

I feel so bad cause you can look at her and you know she is not a happy child, and there isnt anything I can do to help her feel something different.

It's really good that she talked to you about it. She needs to know it's not her fault and that you will try to help her. Sometimes the answers aren't easy, but just knowing you're trying to help can sometimes ease the stress back for them.
