Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, a non-profit organization committed to improving the lives of abused children, recently released a heartfelt wish list made by a foster child in Oklahoma. Social services eventually rescued the boy from serious maltreatment by his parents after a concerned neighbor reported the incident.
Dreamcatchers for Abused Children placed the child in the care of a loving and caring adoptive family. When they informed the youngster, he made a heartfelt wish list of items he wanted in his new forever family.
The list comprises essential necessities that any youngster should have but which were tragically lacking in his past life:
Food and water.
Protection against physical abuse.
There is a house equipped with electricity and running water.
Love and no conflict among parents.
The place is devoid of drugs and violence.
Help with education.
Clean and proper attire.
A clean and safe living environment.
He experiences a sense of justice when his belongings remain intact.
A TV for amusement.
Basic personal hygiene products such as a toothbrush, soap, and comb are essential.
This heartbreaking list serves as a poignant reminder that many youngsters face incredible challenges and lack even the most basic necessities. It is a call to acknowledge and cherish our blessings while also extending compassion and help to those in need.
Let us share this tale to raise awareness and foster empathy for children in precarious situations.
