“She’s an only child, isn’t she?”
Hi, I know we’ve just met. Yes, our two children are playing happily together on the playground and therefore we are obligated and somewhat yearning to connect as parents, so small-talk ensues. Oh, both our kids are in preschool? Awesome! He’s sleeping through the night? Well done, you! But only 5 minutes into the chit chat, you say one of the most hurtful statements to me.It stabs me in the heart and I pray my daughter didn’t hear you.
My heart breaks a little, for I know this is just one of many hard lessons she will have to endure in her life. My daughter processes that information, wipes her eyes, and moves on to an irresistible twisty slide, smile back on her face. The tension leaves my shoulders as I sigh with relief. I look on adoringly and then it happens. The dreaded comment.
is one of the most hurtful and reckless comments on the playground. If you don’t know why, then let me explain.she’s an only child. Based on how flippantly you throw out that question, I would guess that you have never experienced tragedy. True tragedy, because if you had you would think twice before saying such a seemingly innocuous sentence. The tragedy of. The tragedy of losing a child. The tragedy of being separated indefinitely from your baby.
