Many people nowadays who discover that they have a major symptom, whether psychological or physical, begin to study it. They get drawn very deeply into the area of their trouble. They want to know more than their doctor. That's a curious thing, and not at all the way it used to be.
I'm always struck by how innately curious kids are about the world around us and how engaged and sensitive they are to what is happening. . and how many kids do want to be engaged and do what to make a difference.
