SWEETHEART

call me sappy if you must .. or weird, or whatever. But I like it when random strange older women call me sweetheart ... that joint just fills me with love. I think it's some nice shit to call someone ... So the other day I held open the door for this women and her mother (or sister, not really too sure) so they could get their double twin stroller (plus three year old in tow) through the doorway ... after which the mother-slash-older sister was like, "thank you sweetheart" in this real genuine way that made me feel like, "yo, people really are inherently good, and really want to treat each other with love and respect." ... and they were helping the little 3 year old along. So I step in the elavator after I let them through .. and the little 3 year old gives me a cute little smile (no child molester) and starts to jump up and down in the elevator in that little kid mini jump jumpoff kinda way, at which point the sweet kind woman who called me sweetheart straight up debows the girl with the illest swat to the head, and asks, rhetorically; "What the fuck is wrong with you????" ... Where were they going? you ask? ... The foster care agency on the 8th floor, of course.

As a former foster child and current child advocate...

I'm thinking that a better way to handle a foster child of only three years old is with gentleness and patience.

Ya think?

Because if a 3-year-old child has been abandoned by her own parents, perhaps she deep down feels like something is wrong with her?

Yo, PaullyP, have you seen the movie "Good Will Hunting"?

The scene with Matt Damon and Robin Williams? "It's not your fault... it's not your fault... it's not your fault."

Lifetime worth of damage can happen to children with careless words like that. The words last much longer than the pain does.

Trust me,
Lisa
