There has been concern about how young people in the city who have had contact with former Common Councillor Donnie Snook will react to his fall from grace. Katina Feggos-Russell of Family Plus Counselling tells CHSJ News the entire community can be affected when a high profile personality gets into trouble and there's a real roller coaster of emotions such as denial, anger, grieving, a sense of betrayal and disillusionment.
She says there are some people who will try to block the person out as a means of coping and advises parents to let their children express how they're feeling openly and honestly.
