We joke about it, but being honest & still getting in deep trouble from your parent is very, very disheartening.
She turns the car around. Telling me how she's gonna beat my ass and all this stuff. I'm honestly scared AF. My mother was abusive.
-
-
So when she gets in the parking lot, I walk out the car before her. I didn't even give a fuck. I ran all the way to my friends house.
-
3 miles away. I knew my mother couldn't stop herself once she got started so I really had to save myself. Ran to my friend crying.
-
Her mom let me stay there for like a day or two until my mom calmed down. She talked to her and said it was best. My mom knew honestly.
-
When I got home, my mom didn't lay a hand on me. She put me on punishment. That has stuck with me for years.
-
I never want my kids to feel like they can't come to me. Or that the punishment will be so severe to the point that running away...
-
is better than actually facing it. I never want my kids to be afraid of me. To really fear me like the boogeyman when they mess up.
-
Y'all really advocate for beating your children and it honestly saddens me as a child where physical punishment raised me.
-
The times I've had to barricade myself in my room to avoid getting beat up, or my mother coming into my room while I was sleeping...
-
After she'd take a punishment too far to cry over me and say sorry. You guys really sit here and advocate for abuse.
-
I cannot understand. And I refuse to.
