Helen’s grandson, Felix.<br />
Helen ingutanga, Felix.<br />
had to live with it and get over it right<br />
away. Many of us became like family to<br />
each other, watching over each other,<br />
protecting each other, but we never<br />
knew what went on at Grolier Hall at the<br />
other hostel. Now we know why so<br />
many disappeared, ran away or were so<br />
sad, and always wanted to throw rocks<br />
or snowballs at us Anglican kids. No<br />
wonder: they were being abused, sexually,<br />
and that is so scary. Many of us at<br />
Stringer Hall were lucky we were not<br />
being abused in that way, not that I<br />
know of anyways.<br />
Many of us who went to residential<br />
school are now parents and grandparents.<br />
Many of us had no parenting skills.<br />
We were not used to being with family.<br />
We became distant. We spoke English<br />
very well. We forgot our parents’ and<br />
grandparents’ way of living traditionally<br />
and culturally. Many of us didn't want<br />
to eat the food our parents tried feeding<br />
us when we were home for two<br />
summer months of July and August.<br />
Some of us forgot who our parents<br />
were, who our family was. The language<br />
was lost. We didn't understand our parents<br />
and grandparents and the community<br />
anymore. We became strangers in<br />
our own hometowns. But many of us<br />
who knew our families were so happy to<br />
be home, and dreaded that long weekend<br />
in September when we all had to<br />
go back to Inuvik. I wonder what our<br />
parents and grandparents and communities<br />
felt like when we all left, no more<br />
kids around, quiet and lost. This is what<br />
the government did. I think of this to<br />
this day, my beloved parents and grandparents,<br />
how they felt, and how broken<br />
