what a friend you have in me. a true friend, the very best
by: maurice

Oh Tyler, you sure are one very special child of God, loved and treasured by your Mam and Dad and your family. I am certain Carter values your friendship no end. He can rightly say, what a friend I have in you Tyler. The very best kind of friend, the one he trust with his life and story. Oh Tyler you are the gold nugget he needs right now in his young life. You will be his stepping stone to being a true believer in himself. Carter too is one very brave and wonderful teenager/young man. The power of love, the power of friendship will slowly get him believeing in himself. You will get him all the relevant help (professional help) he will need to make a sense of all that brute of a step father did to him. An animal not a human being. Oh Carter sure has one very special friend in you. stand by him and I know you will untill he can stand on his own two feet. Tyler thank you for telling Carter's story for him. I believe in true friendship being the one thing we all need as human beings. A true friend. Carter has found one in you. Christina sure has given both of you her Love and friendship too. God bless you both.

You're the kind of friend that every victim kid wished they had.
by: Dan1

I wish I had a friend like you. I was too a victime of sexual abuse, but I didn't have no one to go to and tell when I was a kid. I didn't trust adults or any kind of authority after what happend to me. My incident got me to believe that all adults were rapists. I couldn't even tell my family members. You were their for your friend and you even witnessed it. You came to his rescue and got him away from his stepdad. I'm sure it meant a lot to him that u were always their and that you took him in and he'll tell you that soon if he hasn't yet. Basically I'm sayInG thTa you are a hero and again I wish I had a friend like you that I could of gone to.

what in the world?!
by: My Two Cents

Jeez, Carter....this is so unspeakable. Your stepfather was a sadistic monster who never should have been allowed near you.

I am so incredibly happy that your friend and his parents helped you, this is far beyond friendship.

I really feel like a broken record, repeating the same comment all the time - where in the world were your teachers and the other adults in your life who are required by LAW and their professional associations to report SUSPICIONS of child abuse to child welfare???

I simply cannot believe that with the violence you experienced (coughing up blood???)and the visible evidence when you took off your shirt in school, they didn't suspect????? What exactly do these teachers do when they attend a professional development day on child abuse if not learn what to watch for?

Gah! This just makes my blood boil.

I really hope you are doing well and continue to heal from this monster's cruelty.

Be well.

My Two Cents.
