Child Abuse Story From Kristen5

by Kristen
(Arkansas, USA)

13 years old, emotional and physical: 
I am scared to call the police on my mom because if they do not take her to jail then she will hurt me. I do not know if this is abuse but my mom was cusing and yelling in my face then she grabbed my hair and threw me to the floor and then dragged me from the hallway floor to my room and than sat me up by my hair and yelled in my face. And also one time she left bruises on my legs from a belt but I don't have proof but I did tell my grama and my nana saw it to. I guess the police could do a lie detector test to me...Couldn't they? I have tried to tell my mom how I feel but she doesn't care and then I tried to show her by cutting myself she said I was crazy but treated me the same. But the bruises are gone because it was months ago and the hair thing was a couple weeks ago. Today she cused and yelled at me because I wanted to go walking then she told me I needed to clean instead so I did. But I do talk back to her but I don't cuss and today I didn't talk back and she kept on talking and cusing and I had stoped talking after can I take the dog for a walk?... Help. I need advice.

 The sooner, the better...Darlene is right!

Kristen, what your mother did to you is ungrateful because she is really twisted and cruel in her own ways of thinking...not to mention a control freak, so the sooner you tell someone, the better. Darlene is right. Please tell someone you really trust.

 Help yourself
by: Sharky

Nobody deserves to live like that. If you haven't gone for help yet, I suggest that you do so. And I can't lie: I'm no expert, but I do know that things won't be easy. But it is very important that you don't give up on yourself, because you are someone. You have meaning, and there's no doubt in my mind that people find you worth knowing. Maybe your mother's sick, I don't know. But there are loving people out there, and people care what happens to you. Find help anywhere that you can, and tell someone what's happening. Don't forget to find a time to smile!
