LETTERS FROM KIDS

Why Should Kids Try Kids' Turn?

"The reason why I went to Kids' Turn is because two years ago my mom and dad got a divorce. Almost every night I would wake and hear them arguing. I would put a pillow over my head so I could not hear them. They would argue about the littlest things. Things that were so stupid that sometimes I would laugh.

Then the arguments got louder, louder and more faithful. That is when I started to get nervous. I heard the words, ' this is our last argument.' Then one night my Dad and I came home from the arcade, the house was empty. There was hardly any furniture. For the first time I saw that my dad was sad. It was a shock to me because I never heard my dad that sad before.

Then I got over it. I went to Kids' Turn and met a lot of other kids who had gone through the same thing as me. That's how it helped me."

What Will Kids' Turn Do For Kids?

"This program helped me a lot. When I first got there I thought it wouldn't help at all, because I thought the program would not heal me from my parents' divorce. I had a big hole in my heart. I started to feel a big relief. I felt as if a big burden had been lifted from my shoulders. The program helped me, it was like a miracle. Everything was very difficult. Before, I didn't even feel like doing anything, but now thanks to this program, it has helped me a lot. Thanks, Kids' Turn."
