Children who are less wounded will have fewer barriers. Such children can then become individuals protected by the barriers they had to build around their vulnerable, wounded hearts. Hurts and pain can transform into the energy that pushes children forward. They then throw themselves into their lives, into the search for approbation, into self-fulfillment, into dreams and illusions.

All the disorder and darkness of their lives can be buried there. Instinctively, all children learn to hide their terrible feelings behind inner walls, the shadowy areas of their being. If some children fall into depression and want to die, others seem to survive despite adverse conditions such as sickness, squalor, abuse, violence, and abandonment life can be tenacious and stubborn. They have lost trust in them and in themselves, they are confused and feel misunderstood. Lonely children feel no commonality with adults. And when children are wounded in their hearts, they learn to protect themselves by hiding behind barriers.
