by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

Your mother was twisted in her way of thinking. She wasn't in her right mind; so for you to continue to believe the lies she convinced you of, is to take the word of someone without any credibility. You now have the power to re-write all those negative and untrue messages you received. You ARE good enough. You ARE special. You ARE worthy of dignity and respect. You ARE worthy of being believed. You ARE worthy of LOVE. Keep telling yourself that because that IS the truth, and then love and hug YOURSELF. Don't wait for your mother to do that for you. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

The sooner, the better...Darlene is right!
by: Anonymous

Lauren, your brute of a mother should be ashamed of herself! What she did to you is truly cruel and sadistic. That loser scum of a mother should be locked up in prison with her slimy boyfriends together, so the sooner you tell someone, the better. Darlene is right. Lauren, please tell someone you really trust until they will isten to you and help you. Good luck!

your story
by: dana

This story makes me soo mad! I'm glad it has a happy ending, though and I wish you luck in whatever you want to accomplish in the future. I had scoliosis as a child and when I was 12, I had the surgery. Did you have to have surgery?

Safe hugs, Don't go back to the abuse!
by: Mac

Lauren;Glad you're out of that situation, don't go back! You can't heal or change your momma,by submitting & enduring.She needs to be reported, and you need to keep yourself safe,and continuing to begin your recovery walk. Get the support you need, whatever it takes to protect yourself, & help you heal. It's a life long journey into a new , better life & happiness, but no matter how hard it is to get there, keep going forward towards it,...to happiness, wholeness, a better life.Sharing your story is a good step forward, as there are others who share your pain, & walk beside you on your recovery path.So proud of you girl..... you're on your way out of that horrid darkness & pain! You're ok, & you're getting stronger/ better everyday. Remember to be gentle on yourself, & patient,when changes don't just happen in a blink of an eye,etc.,....don't give up. Life's not easy, but life is so much more than the pain of the past.

Questions for Lauren
by: Anonymous

Thank you so much for sharing your story Lauren. When you were in this situation, did anyone try to help you? Do you think there was something that someone should have seen and reported? Under what circumstances would you have confided in someone else about your abuse? I ask these questions to you in hopes that people can better recognize the symptoms and offer help to children in similar situations. You've been through something very horrible and survived. Be proud of yourself. God bless you.
