That doesn’t mean their mental health wasn’t impacted. [/quote]

Talk about major childhood trauma - just take a look at the Syrian refugee camps, the ones throughout Africa, the immigration ones in Greece, etc. Heartbreaking.

And you think PTSD is just an adult thing.[/quote]

How can begin to compare Syrian refugees in immigration camps with having to stay in your comfortable house with tv, Internet, all the food you can eat, and no fear of your house or neighborhood getting bombed. Maybe because I came from a poor country and now teach students who live in poverty and live in crowded conditions like one family renting one bedroom- not a one bedroom apartment- but one bedroom in an apartment I don't let my kids complain. I acknowledge the lies of not seeing friends and teachers but no whining about being stuck in a spacious home.[/quote]
