Keep Mental Health in Check...

Painting with my autistic students...
One of my students was in a state I had never seen her in…
She was tearful and distressed…
“Why can’t I go back in a time machine and kill baby Hitler because he caused so much pain…’
Taken aback by what she said…
I tried to comfort her that that was in the past…
And we can help today by being the most peaceful & loving beings we can be to all those around us…
Sigh… she finally did calm down
I wonder if this war is causing her sweet mind stress and fear…
Let's help the conversations be open and ongoing to help keep mental health in check … for both children and adults
