What a painful topic, yet to present and cruel. I have lived in a family where the kids were not beaten, but the mother was...and very often, so violence makes me throw up...literally.
Great message, but a subject that sits very sorely with me. Do you know how many of these go reported, but our courts believe more in parents rights than the child's? My mom and I have been fighting a 5 year battle for my niece. They keep removing her then sending her back home. It's disgusting, but hopefully we will finally get the resolution we have fought so hard for in the next few months!
Oh, God! That is awful. So sorry to hear that, I hope things will sort out soon, for your nieces' sake, before her mental health is affected. Violence leads to all kind of psychological issues during adulthood.
Hang in there and fight for her, she deserves what's best!

ReplyDeleteThis is an important message that needs to be expressed even if it isn't cheerful.

Kind of perfect
ReplyDeleteI'm a child of abuse so this really hit home for me. Not something I share too often.
