In class we watched a documentary called Solider Child, it was released in 1998. During the documentary, I was in complete shock. I couldn't believe any of the stories that were presented. One specific story that stood out to me, I don't remember the exact details but the commander had cut off a civilians foot and made the wife eat it. I don't know why, but that story really bothered me.
I really felt sad for the children, and what they had gone through at such a young age. I could never imagine going through that. What if that happened to your own child? It also got me thinking about how fortunate I am to have been not been in any situation similar to that. It made me thankful for my life. I also thought it was very interesting was how the children go through their therapy. They draw their experiences and the adults help them work through them. I liked that, I had never heard of it before.
