Just listen to him attentively. Let him pour out all his feelings without interruption. Sometimes, all a person needs is someone to really listen.
Offer words of empathy. Say things like 'I can't imagine how hard this must be for you' or 'Your pain is valid and I'm here for you'. This shows that you understand his feelings at least to some extent.
We can start by providing him with basic necessities like food, water and warm clothes. These are the immediate needs that can make his life a little more comfortable. Also, we can give him information about local shelters where he can stay and get some more support.
Providing emotional support through counseling or support groups can be beneficial. These can help her deal with the long - standing psychological trauma. Additionally, we can encourage her to write down or record her story for future generations, so that the world never forgets what happened to her and others like her.
Perhaps it's a story of shattered dreams. He might have had big plans for his career or his life in general, like becoming an artist but due to some unforeseen circumstances, like poverty or family pressure, he had to give it all up.
One way is to offer him some food and warm clothes immediately. Basic necessities are crucial for him at the moment.
One way is through oral history projects. By interviewing the few remaining Comfort Women and recording their stories, we can preserve them. For example, many non - profit organizations are doing this work.
One way is through education. We can include the study of 'comfort women' stories in school curriculums. This will ensure that future generations are aware of this historical tragedy.
Tell them that it's just a story and not real. Explain that there are no real monsters or ghosts in the story. For instance, you could say, 'The scary things in the story are made up by someone's imagination, just like when we make up pretend games.'
We might learn different things depending on the nature of the story. If it's a cultural story, we can learn about the black man's culture, its values and traditions. If it's a story about friendship, we can learn the importance of loyalty and support among friends. If it's a story about achieving goals, we can learn about hard work and determination.
By simply telling the true stories of comfort women. Many people are not aware of this tragic part of history. A short story can be a powerful medium to expose the atrocities.
You can start by hugging the kid. Physical comfort can make them feel safe immediately. Then, you can talk to them in a calm voice, telling them that it's just a story and not real.
