Child Abuse Story From Mary

It Shouldn't Hurt to be a Kid: 
Hi Darlene. I just found your site and want to thank you for starting it. On my blog I also write about child abuse that happened to me by writing poetry about my abuse. Mine started at the age of 6 months. My mom used to tell the story of how I wouldn't eat, so she one day slapped me hard across the face and she said she left a hand print on my cheek. I was adopted into this family at 6 months, and then was sexually abused by my father and my mom's cousin for many years.

I never told anyone, but one day it got too much for me and I finally went into therapy, and am still in therapy.
