News of Child Abuse Forum

Hello. I'm fifteen years old and am concerned that my friend's mother is exercising severe inappropriate control over her. Now, obviously as a teenager it's important for her mother to set limits on her, but the restrictions this girl, also fifteen, is under are simply ridiculous and unrealistic for a person her age.

For example, her mother does not allow her to choose what to wear in the morning, only allows her to speak on ...

Hello,

My stepson has come to me and informed that one of his female friends has a father that beats her pretty bad, maybe once a month or so. He has a pretty bad temper apparantly and whenever she does something he doesn't like he unleashes his rage on her. I would like to report this, but I have a few factors to consider. One, if I do report it and he is confronted by ...

I was severely traumatized as a child.

I innately felt that there was no need to plan, prepare, focus on my future or, even what is going to happen next week bc I would most likely not be here. At 40, I was amazed I was still alive. At 47, even more so. I do take good care of myself and am in ...

Hi,

I have just joined up as I feel that this is something that I need to recognise, understand and try to deal with before it ruins my life anymore than it has.

I'm 32 and recently I have had to move back into the parental home because my flat is several hundred miles away and I can't sell it at the moment and I'm in a bit of debt that I need to pay ...

thanks

Ok so sexual abuse it says is commited by someone who is older than the victim if they're under eighteen...

What is that person is actually younger than the victim?

Sounds kind of lame, like she should've been able to take control if the other person was younger hey

I just called to report from across the country that my niece is being endangered and neglected. I got the information 2nd hand from another relative and I am a mandated reporter, as is my spouse. The baby just turned one and her parents are doing drugs regularly in the house and having other couples over to engage in sexual activity. (Not sure what is happening when, but I do know that she was born ...

Any advice would be appreciated. I am twenty years old now. Throughout my entire childhood (amongst many, many other family issues), my mother was highly emotionally abusive to me. I believe that among the things I faced, this emotional abuse was the most traumatic and has led me to have developed avoidant personality disorder (no need to be familiar to help out, its something im trying to overcome slowly but surely).

Anyway, she screamed (ear ...
