Children in Iraq are seriously suffering psychologically with all the insecurity, especially with the fear of kidnapping and explosions. In some cases, they?re found to be suffering extreme stress.

Many Iraqis believe that psychologists treat crazy people. For this reason, they don?t bring their children in for treatment.

The fear of kidnapping has been the main reason for learning deficiencies, especially among children whose parents are government employees or high-ranking professionals like doctors and teachers.
