I would like to share a poem made by an anonymous author. The poem was made against child abuse. Please take time to read.

Daddy... It Hurts...



This is A TRUE STORY:

My name is Chris ,
I am three,
My eyes are swollen..
I cannot see.

I must be stupid,
I must be bad,
What else could have made,
My daddy so mad?

I wish I were better,
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy,
Would still want to hug me.

I can't do a wrong,
I can't speak at all,
Or else I'm locked up,
All day long.

When I'm awake,
I'm all alone,
The house is dark,
My folks aren't home.

When my mommy does come home,
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll just get,
One whipping tonight.

I just heard a car,
My daddy is back,
From Charlie's bar

I hear him curse,
My name is called ,
I press myself,
Against the wall.

I try to hide,
>From his evil eyes,
I'm so afraid now,
I'm starting to cry.

He finds me weeping,
Calls me ugly words,
He says its my fault,
He suffers at work.

He slaps and hits me,
And yells at me more,
I finally get free,
And run to the door.

He's already locked it,
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me,
Against the hard wall.

I fall to the floor,
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues,
With more bad words spoken.

'I'm sorry!', I scream,
But it's now much to late,
His face has been twisted,
Into a unimaginable sh ape.

The hurt and the pain,
Again and again,
O please God, have mercy!
O please let it end!

And he finally stops,
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless,
Sprawled on the floor.

My name is Chris ,
I am three,
Tonight my daddy,
Murdered me.


At least 5 children each day from around the world die from child abuse!!!!

This happens across the board, no matter how much money they have or their ethnicity.

my grandfather raped his daughter multiple times, and got her pregnant. my dad beat the crap out of my mom, me, and my three siblings. my brother is mentally abusive to his kids. it seems like this horrible thing is being past down by the men in my family.

i really think my dad had mentally issues. i cant speak about my grandfather because he lived in a different state and i didnt really know him. my brother is normal and it is a learned behavior.

my heart breaks when i hear about physically abuse or rape.

It really breaks my heart hearing those stories. I have been abused several times by several men. I was molested by my cousin aged 16 and I was just 6. Again molested by an unknown stranger when I walk in the park of the dark condominium. I was 12. Molested again by my friend's dad. I was 16. And the worst thing... I was raped by my friend's friend. He was drunk!

If it's not wrong to kill people, I'll kill them all! to what they've done to me! I was in trauma for 2 months, not speaking not eating well, couldn't sleep well, grades got low, afraid to be touched by anyone. And Ican still remember clearly what they did to me. And it's killing me everytime I remember it. I posted this topic because the nightmare came back to me again. And I want to feel that I am not alone.

Thank you guys.

that's the horrible thing about these kind of abuses it keeps a horrible scare in your memory.
i really believe i suffered from PTSD but wasnt diagnosis it, and just went through it alone.
but we have to be positive and get on with life, even though the smallest thing triggers a flashback.

I don't know. I kept everything for 12 years and confessed everything to my parents when I was 22.

I am happy with my life now and a boyfriend who understands everything about my past. I kno i will get through this... thanks.

I still have a behavior that I am not concious about sometimes. I tend to look around concious of people especially guys. I never trust anyone I don't know. I am walking and looking at my back while after while and hold my hand into a fist like getting ready to punch anybody who wants to come and touch me. And I really walk very fast. That only happens when I'm alone walking in the city lights. But I am normal happy-go-lucky everyday.
