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.

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.

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.
