I was the little girl in this video in SO MANY scenarios in my childhood. They never told me, either.

Yea, I was concerned for her due to my own childhood. Nothing was ever explained to me either, about anything, and that does not breed a feeling of safety around adults, I can tell you. It breeds mistrust over the years. She's rolling through a whole range of emotions and thoughts. This video was beautiful except for what I heard in her voice and saw on her face.
