Whoever said it isn't possible for children to get depressed are wrong. My toddler has been without his older brother for 2 months and doesn't smile. He's begun to demonstrate behavioral problems. He is lost because his idol has left him, even though Asraeli said goodbye he is suffering from abandonment and separation anxiety. In these moments are when a parent feels helpless and the best you could is distract and spend extra time with them so they don't feel lonely. Asraeli comes back in 2 weeks and hopefully so will my babys' smile.
My little snookums(the one on the left) is on holiday with my mum and I miss him. He'll be back in 2 weeks but this is the first time that I've been away from him since he's been born. He's turning 7 on Wednesday and he's not going to see my face when I woke up.
