A 7-year-old living in a domestic violence shelter wrote a heartbreaking letter to Santa. On top of asking for school items as presents, the child also wanted a “very very very good dad.” After being posted on Facebook, the letter has gone viral, and the shelter wants to raise awareness on the issue of spousal abuse.
The boy, only known as “Blake,” to preserve his anonymity, has been living in the SafeHaven domestic violence center in Tarrant County, Texas, since around Thanksgiving. Blake wrote the letter as part of a school project. And according to the shelter’s Facebook post, his mother found it in his backpack.
