A Child’s Love in Every Language for his sister — 他寫下「我愛你」

🧧 A Child’s Love in Every Language — 他寫下「我愛你」(中文請往下滑)

Neil’s cards for his sister Lulu: Love, culture, and everything they’re trying to erase

Neil was only 5 or 6 years old when he made these.

He drew smiley faces, hearts, and wrote his Chinese name: 尼爾.
He wrote “I love you” in both English and Mandarin.
He even used 注音符號 — the phonetic writing system taught only in Taiwan.

He didn’t do this because anyone told him to.
He did it because he loved his sister, his mother, his family — and because he loved his culture.

These drawings are filled with joy, tenderness, and innocence.
And yet, everything they represent is now being taken away.

Neil is no longer allowed to speak Mandarin.
He cannot write to Lulu.
He cannot see her, speak to her, or even say “I love you.”

This is not protection.
This is emotional apartheid and cultural erasure — enforced by a system that punishes a child simply for being himself.

Please share this petition and help us make sure Neil’s voice, identity, and love for his family are never silenced.

 
🧧 孩子的愛，用每一種語言寫下 —— 他寫下「我愛你」

這是 Neil 寫給姐姐的卡片：愛、文化，以及現在正被抹去的一切。

那時候，Neil 才五、六歲。

他畫了笑臉、愛心，還親手寫下自己的中文名字：尼爾。
他寫下了 “I love you” 和「我愛你」。
甚至還用了注音符號 —— 那是台灣孩子才學的拼音系統。

他不是因為別人叫他寫。
而是因為他愛姐姐、愛媽媽、愛家人、也愛自己的文化。

這些畫裡，全都是他的快樂、愛、童真 ——
但現在，這些全都被禁止了。

Neil 現在不能說中文，不能寫信給 Lulu，
不能見她、不能跟她說話，甚至不能對她說一句「我愛你」。

這不是「保護」。
這是情感的隔離，也是文化的抹殺。
一個孩子，只因為做自己，就被這個系統懲罰。

請你幫忙分享這個連署，
讓 Neil 的聲音、他的身份、他的愛和家人，
不再被沉默，也不再被隔絕。
