In a registration centre in Jordan, Euroepan European Commission - Humanitarian Aid & Civil Protections Dina Baslan met a small boy called Ahmad. He asked to borrow her notebook and proceeded to draw a helicopter being shot down by shells. Children of his age should be drawing pictures of their families and their friends, their houses and schools, not violent battles! The participants of the Geneva II peace talks have a responsibility to stop exposing children to such traumatising scenes, to protect them and to prevent a whole generation of children being scarred forever.
