Stephie's Got a Secret
註釋We've all met them - the 'bad' boy, the rebellious girl, the juvenile delinquent. They are difficult to get along with; they don't seem to understand the basic rules of behavior and they don't seem to respect anything. How do they become like that?
I believe all children start out 'good' and then they get beaten down by life. We often blame the parents for the child's dysfunction and rightfully so sometimes. And yet, aren't we all responsible? Sometimes the parents just don't have anything to give and the children end up with nothing but pain and misery. Which one of us is going to help them?
This story is about one of those children. In it we glimpse into the mind of a child who is trying to cope with something that she shouldn't have to. It's sad but it's the truth faced by any number of children we come into contact with daily. Domestic abuse is an unfortunate reality in our troubled times.
