One of my students told me she was very depressed today.
Why?
Her father is dying.
Oh, that's very sad.
Yeah, she's broken up about it, poor kid.
What did you do?
I talked to her for a while, but she's really depressed. So, I made an appointment with the school counselor for her.
That's a good idea. The counselor is a psychologist. He's better trained to handle these sorts of things.
Yeah, that's what I told her. I'm glad she's reaching out for help, instead of trying to deal with this on her own.
Yeah, me too.
