there must be coping - the fact that he was
taken in broad daylight with the apparent overt
complicity of the police, has left everyone very
shocked. and I guess the accompaniers who were with him will be forever wondering what they could have done differently to try and stop this terrible thing from happening. and I just keep thinking about how
this can happen here, like it was ordinary, like it was normal. i didn't know orlando, but i met him last week when he was filling in the forms for his visa. I just keep thinking of that big smiling man sitting in the corner of the office, his sunglasses pushed down
his nose, chatting about his trip, wishing him a safe journey. and now when i pass by the office all i see is a photocopied sheet with his photo, and the word 'desaparecido'. ... read full story / add a comment

‘Children can bring out the best and worst in adults’ says Ann Healey, a Playtherapist who lives in Courtmacsherry, Co Cork. ‘Depending on how we listen and respond to them, their interaction with us will be affected. I read a book many years ago called ‘Dibs in Search of Self’ by Virginia Axiline and it changed my whole approach to working with children.
