NISHA
“Father,
Nisha is a problem! She does not listen. She is stubborn and sticks vehemently
to her own opinions. When confronted for something she has done Nisha threatens
to runaway, becomes very defensive and sulks! It takes some time for her to
return to normalcy.” The sister-in-charge describe more of her antics very
casually. She knows things will change for Nisha. She is new to the home and
has to learn to adjust herself to the news home.
Nisha
is about 9 yrs old and is in grade III. She has not seen her father and her
mother leads the life of a nomad and has no time for her two children who are
with us. Both of them were rescued and entrusted to us.
Nisha
represents several other girls who may be termed psychological orphans who
suffer from myriad problems. They are the products of a mechanical union devoid
of love! Their minds are scarred and their hearts are arid deprived of love!
Understanding
these children, patiently listening to their stories, being sensitive to their
silence and offering appropriate responses, ensure healing of emotions. It is
indeed a privilege to serve them!
