The emotional vulnerability to which young people and infants who had to flee Ukraine with their families are exposed is becoming a more evident problem every day. From one day to the next, the social life that began to resume after 2 years of the COVID pandemic was interrupted by the attacks on the cities where they lived. The confinement, the lack of recreational activities and affective relationships are a silent danger for this generation of Ukrainians who have lived under the siege and stress of the world around them.
