Such a sick excuse of a father
by: Anonymous

Lyric, I am glad that you and your baby are in a safe place now. Well, if my dad did something like that to my son/daughter, then I will be so mad at him. I am so glad that your teacher is with you guys now because he is so sweet for doing that! I just really hope that your sick excuse of a dad will be imprisoned for all those terrible crimes that he committed against you guys.

How can a community protect the innocent?
by: maurice

Child Abuse and it's long, short term effects it has on the innocent and vunerable individual is well and truly detailed here on Darlne's Site and the world over now. It is a well known fact that children who are abuse find it difficult, hard won't squeel, rat, tell on their parents, equally children/teenagers will not tell on close family members and extended family members who abuse them. Thankfully many now who have lived with their secret are beginning to have courage and be brave and telling their story. For far too long we who suffered abuse as children behind Family, schools, institutions, work places, rmained silent. Whose life was ruined by this abuse. MY LIFE: In hindsight now what a fool I was to suffer in silence. The only way NOW a community
can protect the innocent and the vunerable is to give them a stepping stone, a platform, and put safeguards in place that a child will have the courage to tell. This for many has come too late. But we can only move on from the NOW time of our lives. Free ourselves from the shackles that held us down after ABUSE. I am not for one moment saying that is or will be easy but I am saying there is a full life to be lived after ABUSE.

You are a guideing Angel to us all and to your own age group in particular: I quote you. I thank this website for letting me share my story, and I want people to know that it is never a bad idea to speak against ABUSE. If they're getting abused to please get help. THANK YOU: Darlene is fully aware how valueable her site is to all who visit it. You sure said Thank you on all our behal's to her. Your story brought out for me the vunerability of you as the child of that Beast. Not a man, Not even a human being who was a control freak of a beautiful innocent child and her baby. GReat you are far from him now, safe in the hands of people who trully love and respect you. There are great and good people out there to trust, to love and let them love us is another big lesson you taught the rest of us too lyric. I've no doubt your Thank You will reach a Special wonderful, good Womans heart for HER SITE. God Bless you and you little baby Lyric. Thank God for that teacher and his wife. I am so happy for you.

Your story is inspirational. Your teacher was right. You have a gift. I'm so glad that you are in a safe place now. I would like to know from you if you think that there was someone that should have seen something. Should/Could something have been reported earlier? Is there anything that anyone could have done to make a difference early on for you. I hate to make you ask yourself what if and to look back into your abuse and to reflect on it, but your story and thoughts could help create some understanding of how to approach a victim and help them.

The Horror
by: Anonymous

Lyric, your "dad" is deeply troubled and sadistic. It's good that your teacher helped you work to get out. Anyway, none of what happened is your fault; he only blamed you because he just refuses to accept his own responsibilities. Now that your teacher got you (and even your baby) away from that sick ogre of a dad, your healing can start in earnest.
