I absolutely advocate any use of psychotherapy. I just look at it as being the only guest on a one-hour talk show. I just suggest you begin to work with him soon, before they begin to see any serious long term effects, such as being developmentally delayed, or him acting out. NIP IT IN THE BUD. If you dont fix issues when their kids, he'll be dealing with it when hes 40, wearing a sun-dress, beating his biker wife, living in a skeezy trailer park somewhere, and ending up on Jerry Springer. This kids been through a lot. he couldnt possibly hope to cope with it all on his own. Isnt their anyway they coud get him treatment ina metropolitian facility maybe once a month. Thats better than none. I would limit his exposure to TV and newspapers, shield him if you will. And have his parents send a letter to his teacher, cc'ing the principal and superintendant explaing the toll the crisis is having on him and asking them not to discuss it any more in front of him. They HAVE to respect their wishes, if not it sets them up for a lawsuit. Hope this helped!
