 it's time to break the damned silence!

sorry for the profanity but feel free to edit I'm royally po'd right now. last night i watched one of my best friends blow his brains all over his bedroom wall becasue no one would help him and he wouldn't helo himslef and i can't take it anymore. the source of all this? ABUSE. the elepahnt in the room as it were. although this elephant is hunter orange with neon pink markings. People who are abusewd feel they shouldn't speak out and why? because parental abuse is kind of swept under the rug after a certain age.. we have blurred the line between discipline and beatings in the case of older children. i was beaten every day i lived under my parents roof in order to "make a man out of me". my mother stood by and watched it happen just like his mother stood by and watched him be beaten and sexually assaulted nightly by his father. but since the subject is taboo in society he didn't felel comfortable speaking out and his mom didn't speak out or divorce him for the same damn reason. It' time and past time we made this a socially accpetable thing to talk about. If he had just been able to talk to someoen and get help there would be one less hole in sevral peoples lives, one less grave lying filled, and one more teenager still drawing breath. those of us who've been abused need to come together and do something to change the status quo because quite frankly? ity F**KING SUCKS.

I'm so sorry you had to go though that. I don't know what to say.

That's horrible! I'm so sorry you had to witness that, and will be praying for you and everyone else involved.

And you're absolutely right. This kind of thing shouldn't just be treated like water under the bridge, but some people are just too prideful to admit their problems, especially when they're older. You're doing the right thing by trying to help dissolve the taboo around this stuff.

I'm sorry. The only thing we can do is ensure we do not repeat our parent's mistakes.

*Hugs* I'm sorry that you have had to go through that and I'll definitely be praying for healing for you and those who have had to go through those situations as well.

thank you to \everyne for your kind words and your prayers and also for toughing it out and rerading through that. i'm sorry for the language and for the incoherency(is that a real word?) I was just pouring out the pain and anger before it had time to turn into a spiritual abcess but i do believe with all my heart that we do need to break down the taboo about this i was so afraid of breakingit that i told you all alie ahwile back saying that my father never laid a hand on me except when i pushed him too far. that was not true and i beg your forgiveness for telling you that. Taboos are sometimes useful for maintaining social decorum and decency but some of them are dangerous to others and need to be changed.

*hugs and prayers*

Sorry I didn't get to read this earlier... Don't worry about keeping the taboo for a while, I forgive you; society has a way of enforcing taboos way beyond their usefulness.

I'm not too afraid of most people here repeating their (our) parents' mistakes. Most, if not all, of us are pretty smart, but there are a lot of people that just mindlessly copy behavior because that's the 'normal' thing to do.

(Incoherency looks like a word to me... it's made up of letters and has spaces or punctuation before and after it. Yup, it's a word. I even understand what you mean by it.)
