Hi i am new to this forum and came here really to get soem feedback and some advice.

My next door neighbour who i have known for 8 years, but she has only lived next door to me for just over 1 year had an abusive past with an ex girlfriend (she is bisexual not that it matters). Her gf would beat her black and blue, verbally and mentally abuse her and was on drugs. ...

To make a long story very short. I have been in a relationship with a mother of two from two different fathers for a while. We have been steady for about three years and are going to be married soon. Her daughter is three her son is five. Everything is fine with the daughter, however, the son is different. She currently has 50/50 custody with the father. At first the father had no custody because ...

I found this poem a few years ago and I've always kept it close by. It really struck home with me and has helped me open up knowing that I'm not alone in my pain.


For Children Who Were Broken
it is very hard to mend......

Our pain was rarely spoken
and we hid the truth from friends.

Our parents said they loved us,
but they didn't act that way.
They broke our hearts
and ...

I was sexually, physically and emotionally abused through my childhood and teenage years. I recently turned 21 and far away from my abuser but everything in my life is dictated by the memories, the pain, the fear. I just want to get better, I want to get over it and lead a normal life but it never goes away. The abuse I suffered has left me with illnesses that will never go away so even ...

The other day I was cleaning out my closet when I came across a few pictures of me as a child. I was about 6 or 7 in the pictures, and most of them were with me and the other neighborhood kids. The pictures that I saw of just myself made me a bit sad though. I was able to remember some of the things that I used to do by myself like read, paint ...

Hi everyone

I feel so angry and overwhelmed about what's happened to me sometimes it just feels better to push it all out of my mind and not deal with it. Its just the same things going around in my mind over and over and over again and I'm sick of it. Sometimes my life doesn't feel real, it can't be, those things couldn't have happened to me. And still I live in a nightmare, ...

So, anyways life has not been easy and I remember wishing she would die when I was in my teens, so I could be rid of ...

I'm going to try this again. I'm not 100% sure if the person who disapproved this before actually read the message at all, but it is NOT a learning tool to sexually abuse a child! It is a news item about a Man who writes books on it, and on a forum dedicated to discussing this topic, it's 100% appropriate and I'm baffled by the denial.

I'd appreciate it if this weren't acted on emotionally, ...

My Daughter is 4 years old. She lives with her mom and has been going to the same daycare since she was a month old. About a year ago the daycare lady caught a boy around the same age pulling down her pants. They where both put in time out and told that it was wrong and not allowed to play together anymore.
