Children are easily wounded in the relationships with new friends and new teachers. When wounds are not properly treated and children stay in depressive
emotions for a long time, they can be isolated and ostracized. They may even develop the condition of depression. Children's depression can be overcome relatively
easily with the help of professional intervention. Parents can encourage them and say, “It is only natural that you part with your old friends when you go to a junior-
high school. Everyone should make new friends at a new school and everyone goes through some awkward moments at first. New friends become old friends as
time passes. You will do just fine as you keep trying.” When children can understand the situation in their own terms, they can begin to have a positive view on the
unfamiliar environment. Parents should never blame children for not being able to adapt themselves to the new environment.
Girls and women carry feelings in mimind and generate and treat wounds in mimind. They can recognize pain and difficulties in the conscious when wounds are
retrieved. Girls expressing their negative emotions indicates that they want to be understood and consoled by parents and teachers. They cannot but accumulate
wounds inside when no one pays attention to them or provide consolation. The girl may say, “I don't like my school life at all, and you always tell me to study hard.
Teachers and friends are really mean to me, but you never listen to how I feel.” Parents may expect their children to adapt themselves well at school on their own
and study hard, and then, they may not show interest in how they are doing psychologically. In that situation, teenagers cannot express their thoughts and feelings
to parents. As this continues and wounds are accumulated in girls and stress continues in boys, their unconscious may decide to cap their negative emotions
completely, which is manifested as depression.
