Do you know that many of our children are silently depressed because of the life situations they’re facing?
Some are struggling through their parents’ divorce, neglect, bullying. Others are watching domestic violence, constant arguments, or being blamed for things that were never their fault.
And now, more and more young children are turning to su***de, and many parents don’t even realize their child is suffering, because the child is too afraid to speak. They never know what mood their parent will be in from one moment to the next, so they cry in silence, wondering what else they can do.
Instead of coming to their parents for comfort, some children are turning to drugs, alcohol, substance abuse, or unsafe relationships, even allowing someone to violate them, just to feel loved for a moment or for something to eat. Some don’t want to do any of those things, and the pain becomes so heavy that they prefer to end their own lives.
And then the parent is left wondering, “Where did I go wrong?”
But by then, it’s too late.
Parents, we must pay attention to the behavioral changes in our children. Their shifts in attitude, mood, or energy are signs that they may feel unsafe, unloved, or unseen in the very place that is supposed to be their home, their safe haven.
This is why, at the Purple Light Touch Foundation, we are creating an after-school program where girls can come to feel loved, supported, and valued. A place where they won’t feel neglected simply because you have to work or life has become overwhelming.
We are ready to welcome your daughters into a safe, nurturing environment where they can learn life skills, build confidence, and grow into the best version of themselves.
