Babies are born everyday.
One thing infants are not born with is Violence.
Abuse is self taughtViolence can start at home, in schools, on the streets, at work and in relations. Know the signs of someone hurting you and talk to someone about it.
How would you react if someone kicked your pet or you saw someone hurting an animal?
Keeping Violence out of the home is important to provide a healthy environment to children.
Violence is a Dead End street. It serves no purpose. It comes in many forms. Such as they way someone speaks to you or touches you.
Belittling someone is a form of abuse. Pushing, slapping and shoving someone are signs of abuse. Both verbal and physical abuse is violant behavior.
The old saying “Grin and bear it!” does not work with any violent relationship.
How many times have you heard someone say this: “If this women is getting beat up - then why don’t she just leave?”
Women have many reasons why they can’t leave a battered home life. A few are: She has nowhere else to go. She has no ready money available to support herself and children. She is afraid the abuser will come after her and abuse her again. She may fear being charged with desertion, and losing her children and joint assets.
Men can be abused as well.
The 21st Century has provided laws to protect victim of abuse. Visit sites on the live web [internet] and get involved with groups that provide help to victims of violence. Look in your local phone book for hotline help and profession help centers of domestic violence. There are laws that protect your privacy to protect your safety. Encourage those you know are in an abusive situations to get profession help.
If you feel you are being abused – you are probably right. Furthermore, don’t overlook a statement from a child that is telling you information leading to violence or abuse since children do not know how to tell a lie.
Takes steps to help yourself or others to protect yourself from people that abuse. Stay out of relationship that can lash back at you.
Such as:
A person that was abused as a child, left untreated they will often lash back with adulthood flashbacks by abusing others.
Persons that abused animals as a child or as an adult.
A person that boosts how stupid you are.
A person that yells and throws items when they are upset or angry.
A person that shoves slaps or pushes you around.
A person that takes money from you and misleads you to believe they are going to pay you back. But never does.
A person that steals from you and your household.
A person that abuses alcohol or other drugs. Remember, you can never change that person.
Those that act upon being overly jealous of your other relationships. Not only jealous of the same sex, but overly jealous of your outside friendships.
Persons that get angry easily and you are scared to death of them.
When a relationship goes sour it is time to take action. Leave and never go back to it.
Keep violence and abuse behind bars and not in your home.
Yes babies are born everyday. One thing babies can grow up ‘not learning’ is violence.
After all Ouch Hurts and it needs to stop.
