Dear Daisy,
The others have said what I wanted, but so much better than I can.
But I am drawn to your words, I think I feel I wanted to be rescued too when I was little. This was something I talked about with my T today. She asked how it felt not being able to get help for what was going on. Well it feels very vulnerable and lonely. I still feel that loneliness even as an adult.
What you wanted from your T was so natural and beautiful really. It seems like he would have known this, I wonder if he just wanted to you confront this say what you did. I could be wrong but maybe it was more for you to say it, not so much for it being your T who you wanted to help your little girl, but for acknowledging that you wish you could have beenhelped.
As far as wishing you could have been with another family, I think that is so normal considering what kind of family you had. I wished all the time and pretended too I was from another family as a child. You shouldn't be the one feeling guilty for that, it should be the people that hurt you, that should have their tail between their legs. It wasn't your fault.
Wishing you could have help, is so natural, what is unnatural is that the world messed up and didn't save you. No child should be left to feel this way, but unfortunately it happens way too much.
I see the pain of this with the juveniles I work with. Some would rather be at the center, than going back home. I am thinking that even I would wish to be in a juvenile center than being at home, at least I would be taken care of.So let the little Daisy be, she is feeling what she needs to feel, which is completely understandable. Tell big Daisy to give little daisy a hug.
