Parents, please read this with a heavy heart 💔 — and help this mother with advice. No child deserves this kind of pain
💔 My Heart Is Heavy, Please I Need Advice From Fellow Parents
My people, I’m writing this with tears in my eyes. I don’t even know where to start.
My 4-year-old son 🙅@ sweet little boy that used to tell me everything, feel free around me, and talk non-stop, suddenly changed. He became quiet though still plays like a kid he is, withdrawn, and always scared. I noticed he also started practicing jingles for couples when alone.
At first, I thought maybe he was just acting up or maybe childish thinking, but the older brother of 6years old doesn't do such.
But something kept telling me it was deeper than that. One evening, I sat him down, begged him to tell me the truth and what came out broke me into pieces 💔 at first he refused to tell me anything.
He said our house girl had been touching him wrongly whenever I was not around. 😭 And also telling him to pen-trate her even s--king him.
My people, I couldn’t breathe. I felt my world crumble. I cried like never before. I keep blaming myself 😭 how did I not notice on time?
Right now, the girl is no longer with us. . But my worry now is my son. He’s no longer the same. He does not come close to me again except I call him, and it hurts me so much to see my happy boy like this.
Please, parents, I’m begging, what can I do to help him heal emotionally and mentally?
Are there *therapies*, child counselors, or any steps that can help a 4-year-old recover from something like this?
I know I can’t undo the past, but I just want my son to be happy again. Please, drop your advice or words of encouragement. Someone out there might also learn from this. 💔🙏
