Im sorry you and your daughter have to go through this . I have never had to deal with a childs surgery , but for more minor issues like vaccines , etc . , Ive always taken an honest but reassuring approach . Yes it might hurt for a while , but its necessary and will help you see better for the rest of your life . I promise everything will be ok , and I will buy you special presentcandy , whatever thing is a big deal to her when its done . So when you feel it hurting just focus on the special presenttreat and remember this is going to help you and everything will be fine . <| sep |> And upvoted by both . <| sep |> Why is Harry Potter taught in schools ? Let kids read it on their own , on their whims and desires , and let them use popular books like that to forge a natural side hobby of reading . Forcing kids to read it in schools is how you destroy a good book ' s appeal .
