## Caption

“It could be a situation where a parent or caregiver might not be around much because they’re going out for drug seeking and not come back. Or there’s the parent who has an alcohol problem and is in the house but yelling at their kids over not putting away the dishes one day, and is loving the next.  While there’s no one specific characteristic or trait in all kids with addicted parents, that uncertainty, fear of abandonment, and isolation due to feeling are certainly a few of the main issues. 

We love Sesame Street for the lessons and skills they teach young children, especially when it comes to empathy. Karli provides a much-needed lesson for us all, as trying to understand a child whose living with an addicted parent isn’t easy for adults, much less young children.”
