Melamed, I hear what you are saying, but just as often and more sad is the fact that the stories they tell are not exaggerated and are true. The pain that they carry is quite real and quite painful to hear because it is the truth and we know it. We know that parents and mechanchim do make these mistakes and do act the way the kids describe not thinking and not realizing that their words and actions will hit the target so soundly and so strongly that they change their lives.
