I don't understand why I'm still around. The product of 16 foster and two youth home. Until I was forced into emancipation at the age of 18 after graduating high school. My mother had Ms when I was 3 my father was never in the picture. You can never know how terrible it is to live your whole life not having one single family member period being all alone. with no one to care whether you live or die and no one to even bury you if you did. Identity and abandonment issues, and sexual abuse.

Pretending it isn't a major problem or thinking it won't happen again, if you are the victim, is a major mistake.Normally, the abuse begins when the predator has routine access to a young girl or boy.These animals, in my opinion, should be exterminated/decapitated immediately following their arrest.This type of abuse, whether the victim is 2 mths -99 yrs.old is worse than murder.It kills so much of the victim emotionally. The victim is forever impacted, deeply scarred &self-esteem/worth is impaired.
