Taking a stand on Abuse:

In the last few months I have been watching a very dear person go through Domestic Abuse. The sad thing is that she doesn't see it. She is a very young mother who has a beautiful little girl. I love both so very much and it truely hurts me to see what she is doing. I have taken a stand to fight abuse and will make posts on facebook and here to hopefully one day end the Abuse. I know it will never go away but if I can help at least one person see what is happening in their life and help them get the help they need then that is what I will do. I will post a  form of abuse every day for the next 6 days and maybe someone will see it and in turn help me fight this horrible disease.

Emotional Abuse is defined as Hurting another person's feelings by saying cruel, unfair comments or by name calling. Such as:
          *  Attacks on and/or insults about people you care about, such as family and friends
         * Cursing, swearing and /or screaming at you and blames you for everything that has gone wrong
          * Uses money to control you (e.g. taking all of you money, forcing you to ask family and friends for money.
          * telling you you are "crazy" and needs help, that you are not a good person, can't take care of you children, etc.


I hope one day to be able to help this person in my life to understand what is happening and to help her end the Abuse she and her daughter are going through. She doesn't understand that she in turn is inflicking abuse on her daughter and her family and friends. WE need to take this stand on abuse so that the abuser and the Abusee are getting the help that is needed before it is too late.

 If any one reading this wants to help fight abuse please call your local Abuse center and find out what you can do. The National Abuse Hotline numbers are: i-800-799-SAFE(7233) Or TTY 1-800-787-3224.

Thanks for listening and May God bless each and everyone.
