What do you feel? Do you want to reach out and hold her/him, reassure her? What's stopping you from taking her hand and turning her around so you're both face to face. Or how about just gathering her in your arms and lovingly embracing her? We need to be loving parents toward our little child within....much the same way we care for our physical children. We need to nurture and protect them, accept and love them as they are. Doing this your child may be able to express all the pent-up feelings and frustrations they might be feeling. If tears begin to fall, let them.
You may learn alot from this little girl or boy.
