Help interpret abused childrens drawings?

I work at a emergency shelter for children. When children are taken into the shelter part of the intake protocal is for them to draw a picture of a tree, a person, their family doing something and a house. While the our State has psychologists that interpret these drawings the people who actually work with the kids do not know their findings or suspicions. Would anyone be interested in helping me analyze these drawings (to some extent). Please bear in mind that I will protect the privacy of the individuals. e-mail slammer@ionet.net
