  • The only thing some children want this holiday season is to be reunited with their families.
    For nearly 155 years the International Committee of the Red Cross has worked to bring families separated by conflict or natural disaster back together again.
    Under international humanitarian law, aka the laws of war, people have the right to know what happened to their missing relatives. Governments, the military authorities and armed groups have an obligation to give information and help efforts to put families back together.

    I can empathise in a way, though my own misfortune is probably not quite this bad. In December 2019, I accompanied my sister & youngest niece to go Christmas shopping. At some point, my little niece begged to go & visit Santa. I’m an autistic adult in an electric wheelchair & had just recently recovered from amputation surgery (lower leg), so I kinda stuck out. That’s when the friendly Santa insisted that I get a photo with him, as he heard my sister offer to pay for me. I was even asked the question he asks all the kids. Being a good auntie of 8, I merely said I just wanted my nieces/nephews to have a good Christmas (& keeping in the role, he said he’d do his best; bless his heart). I only wish I could have been there with them, as I ended up becoming ill with a septic infection in my leg wound. I spent Christmas 2019 & New Year’s 2020 in hospital, while arrangements were made for a repair surgery. I’m just thankful that it wasn’t much worse & that I still have the photo. I’m actually hoping to get my prosthetic before long (after all my physio), so maybe one of these Christmases I’ll be able to get another photo; perhaps this time without the wheelchair. Since St. Nicholas does so much to cheer up all the kids each Christmas, something meaningful might just be what he needs... 💕✨❤️✨💕

      the biggest tragedy of all is that so many humans must be taught, or reminded of the horrors of war. if you don't know that war is utter horror, without being told and retold, then our species has a REAL problem. and guess what? our species DOES have a REAL problem.

I think that is an important message at this time of year and not in bad taste. Do you think people should forget about those who are suffering and wont be celebrating?- Is that in good taste, how so? What do you mean by "Muslim context"? You are unhappy with the way the child is portrayed, what should the little girl look like, in your opinion?
