This letter is offensive - not your art show - how can a reporter stick her
head in the sand like this.
Congratulations to you to let the kids open up like they did and allow art to
heal
their wounds. Yes they are just too young - too young for anyone to have
abused
them - too young to hurt so much and too young to hold these feelings in.
Maybe some abusers will see this show and take it to heart and stop the
abuse! And maybe other abused kids willl see that they can speak up for
themselves and stop
their hurt too. Art is more than cute puppy dog portraits or flowers in a
vase. Thanks for sharing all this with us. Roberta
