A handbook about an art education program in Chile. A girl here complains about her frustration with one of the activities:
“Es muy difícil”. No es la única que está en problemas, pues se escuchan constantes apelativos en este sentido, en todos los grupos. “Ya pos, tía. ¿Por qué no viene para acá?”; exclama con frustración una de las niñas. “Es que, tía, no tiene ‘abridura’ acá”, señala, desanimada, otra estudiante.
Thanks

opening
or "way in" maybe. Child talk for "apertura". Sounds like the girl is trying to open something and needs help.

openness, close-mindedness
Hi Wendy,
According to an Americanism dictionary, 'abridura' is a slang word for 'apertura'. So I would translated as 'openness' or maybe depending on further context as 'they are close-minded'.

Flexibility or "come and go" seems to be what they are talking about here.
