what would you do if your son helped other kids smash his sister`s piano and rip up all her books?
my nephew, josh, is usually a happy, easy-going kid from a happy, normal family. he has a little sister called sapphire, who is two years younger than him. she is very quiet, shy and a bit withdrawn. the only thing she is good at is playing the piano. sapphire is hopeless at schoolwork, sports, art and almost everything else. she is always playing the piano and singing, both of which she does beautifully. it is very obvious that sapphire has a lot of talent in that area, but she has no friends or social life. one day josh helped a bunch of other kids smash her piano and ripped up all her music books. they even destroyed her cds! sapphire was devastated and in tears. their parents are shocked at what josh had done. it is so not like him. they don`t know how to solve the problem or what to do about it. they are really upset.
He obviously hasn’t learned yet to stick up for his younger sibling. He may even be jealous of her obvious talent. He should apologize to her for not protecting her, and for hurting her this way, but he needs to learn first that he has an obligation to protect her, rather than harm her.
All the children involved owe her an apology. That’s something their respective parents need to help them learn. Whether it stems from the children or their parents, any failure to produce an apology for such harmful acts indicates intolerance toward Sapphire’s difference from them that is likely to develop into bigotry against any people who are different from themselves, as they grow.
The children’s parents may even need to learn this. Otherwise, they may continue to raise children in whose company Sapphire will not be safe.
I’m glad she’s named Sapphire. It tells me that at least some people recognize that she’s precious.
