She must have hated her life and you were the one she blamed the most. it was a terrible thing for a little boy to have to endure, going to school covered in bruises inflicted by his Mother, what a terrible thing that a teacher never once told on her. Probably the principle Ha forbidden it.

P.S. Just before I read your post this morning, I had a conversation with my daughter in Florida who is helping a woman who works in her law office. The 70-year-old woman suffered years of childhood abuse at the hands of her father, and even now - while dealing with serious BP and heart issues, is coping with residual grief and suicidal ideation. Your strength in sharing your experience is sure to help all who read it, including those who didn't have such trauma because they can understand the issue better than before they read you. Peace.

The thing is, you're a survivor! Your personal experience has given you the power to support others who are still struggling to overcome similar trauma. It's horrible that some parents do such heinous things; abuse is a soul-killer for children who endure it. It can warp our perspectives and our take on family life. Love yourself. 🌺
