Being in trouble with their parents. They are so sullen it takes a while to get them back on track. When I see that I let them be for awhile and let them take a break.

I feel so sad seeing this picture especially for that kid in the middle. He looks like his shoulder got hurt by his Dad. That is why he is covering it up like that.
