As we pass the year mark during this pandemic, there is a sentiment thrown around that the kids will be fine.
They’re resilient.
They’ll bounce back.
Everything will be okay.
And yet, no one stopped to ask how many adults they know that are still dealing with childhood trauma.
Or how much their childhood affected so much of their life until they dealt with it.
Or how they never dealt with it directly and it manifested in other ways.
I hope the kids will be fine, but even my most optimistic viewpoint cannot change the fact that we will be dealing with a wave of issues in the upcoming years. We better get ready for it.
