Nyeko Ronald is 26 yrs old...abducted when he was eight years old, he spent 18 years in the bush. Two days ago, after the first six months of reintegration by @pathwaystopeaceuganda we dropped off Ronald at his village just south of the border of Sudan. This will be his first Christmas with his family since he was taken nearly two decades ago. The story of child soldiers is loathsome and unfortunately, nearly global. It isn't only African rebel groups and militias that forcibly take, train, and traumatize children in the name of a cause. The very nature of the psychology of a child's brain makes them nearly perfect targets for this. When the brain is fundamentally dehumanized, people are capable of the most inhumane of acts. Early developmental traumas such as those employed as retention processes by rebel groups leave deep emotional wounds that, left unaddressed, become infectious. Ex child soldiers and former combatants often escape one rebel group only to join another. Recruitment is high amongst those who do not undergo reintegration as the persistent traumas lend themselves well to difficulty adjusting, leading to isolation and eventually recidivism. The process of reintegration is long and deeply underfunded. More young men and women need to be spending their holidays, whatever they may be, at home...with family.
