I cried when I heard on the radio, what the dad said on the 999 call but it was worse than anything I could have imagined when reading the article.
The idea of a grown man beating up a 10 year old child - to the point they died- because they had been "naughty" was sickening enough, but the abuse is a whole new level.
RIP Sara
But also how traumatic for the other children who must have witnessed it (or potentially been abused themselves) and then taken away immediately to live abroad. How will they get through that psychologically?
But also was she separated from friends or not allowed to see them. If one of my DC best friends was suddenly and abruptly taken out of school I imagine they would still want to see them. I guess they probably did exclude friends for fear of abuse being discovered or disclosed.
