Getting bad grades, breaking a lamp, talking back to an adult, lying, or not doing homework are things that sometimes make parents and other adults lose tempers. But they are not reasons to hurt a child. If you saw an animal that was hurt, you would help it because it needs someone. By itself, it might not be able to get away from whatever has hurt it in order to get better. When you help that little animal, you feel good because you have made a difference in its life.
Children are sometimes like hurt little animal.
They need an adult to help them, to put them in a safe place so they can get better and grow up to be strong. The adults who help them feel good that they have been able to make a child's life a little better.
