Red face child abuse.

so i was just curious if any netphorians here, who felt like discussing it, were abused when they were younger.
i seem to remember there being threads like this before, and they never turned out very well. but i want to see how it goes this time around.

i am asking about sever abuse.
school only counts if something terrible happened there. not teasing, or ostricizing.
if the children at school perpetually stripped you bare and stole your clothes, leaving you to wonder the school yard naked, for example.

oh. I thought this was a "FOR" or "AGAINST" type poll. For the record, I'm AGAINST child abuse.

i was beat up about twice a month in middle school and was reminded of how ugly i was about once every half hour. that certainly did have an effect on me.

as far as parental abuse is concerned...only verbal. but a lot of it.

yeah. My parents got divorced when I was like 7 and I lived mostly at my dad's house. He drank a lot and was often away for a few days at a time. and the drinking made him pretty violent at times, too..

i thought this thread was like 'what do you classify as child abuse" (because i have a tendancy not to read things) so i started clicking all the boxes until i got to 'i was never abused' and it came to me what this thread was really about

i APOLOGIZE profusely.

I got spanked and shit, but it was good for me... it was never what i would consider "abusive" even though it hurt like hell. I would nto be the person I am today without spanking and I plan to spank my kids when they mess up too.

I'm 20 and I currently do not live at home with my familial unit. I am considered a "dependent" because the parental unit fills out my FAFSA (paperwork to get financial aid for college) and I am covered under its healthcare plan. About half of the financial aid I get consists of grants (mostly due to my academic achievement) and the other half are loans that are in my name. I have a job, and even though it's not even remotely high profile (student staff assistant at my university), it still pays for food, clothing, shelter, etc.

My sister is 15 years old and does not get physically beaten like me. In fact, I can't recall the last time that she has been beaten. She has also received mental and verbal abuse. I am not comfortable telling her anything about our conversation because she does have the same beliefs about the severity of the situation and, therefore, does not support me. I keep a record of my abuse because, despite my frequent pleas for help to those in authority, no one has ever helped me. Usually the maternal unit beats me but paternal unit does hit me on occasion. It mostly uses its hands. Once it broke a wooden kitchen utensil on me during the beating process. This particular incident occured a few years ago, before high school perhaps. The maternal unit has bashed my head against a metal door a few times. It pulled me by my ponytail into a metal hand rail which caused my mouth to bleed. I only bled on the hand rail, not the door. That has happened over 5 years ago and the area of my house where I bled has since been remodeled.

The last time that it seriously beat me was late Feb. '01. I called 911 and two police officers came to my house. I had bruises all over the right side of my body (torso, arm, leg). They told me that they were going to file a report. No photos were taken at the time. The police wanted to get my version of the situation but the parental unit just said that I came home from a party (my high school's semi-formal) and that it was just me overreacting. I was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time. No breathalizer or blood work was administered. The reason why I think that the paternal was beating me was because I came home with a corsage and it wanted to know who my date was. I told it that I didn't go with anyone and it thought that I was lying.

On August 6, 2002, the paternal unit threw a phone book at my lower back and it hurts like hell when I bend, stand, walk, sit, lay, etc. No bruising has developed. It even stole stuff from my room including my surge protector, Snapple, and hair styling paste. It did eventually cave in and gave back the Snapple. Then it accused me of stealing something of its. I did nothing of the sort.

-Here are the two degrading e-mails from my aunt. She has a strong influence in almost every decision that the parental unit makes.

Subj: Question
Date: 3/31/2002 7:35:43 PM Eastern Standard Time

Lia,
What kind of question is that you asked your sister about your father. Your Dad took time to drive to Washington and your gratitude is showing how rude you can be. What is up with you? If your parents and I did not intervine you would be so weird you would not be able to stand yourself. I had hoped you would have grown up and not act so childish now that you are at school but I see that is not happening. Stop your ill behavior and quit being so self centered. Are you miss independence now that you have a job. I think not. Maturity and adulthood does not come out of a book. You are taught this and with an open mind perhaps you will grasp it. You got the bag and the money from me. How about a thank you! That would be nice.
bye

Before you delete this, know what bad parents are. They drink and smoke and don't worry about their kids. They don't work and worry about having and a comfortable home with food, clothing and shelter, cause they do not care. They worry about themselves. Bad parents don't send their kids to private schools and colleges they cannot afford. Bad parents dont repremand their kids. They could care less what their kids are doing. When you get sick or have troubles bad parents aren't their for you. It's too bad you hung up on me. Guess what I have been awfully good to you kiddo. You have a very short memory. Friends come and go... family is forever. This comes from experience, not books. Being book smart you may not realize this until its too late. On holidays when you are with friends and their families. Guess what you will be the stranger there cause you are not family, your a friend. You will recognize this then your will relate to what I am telling you now.
We all love you
Auntie


Since I've been in college (late-August 2001), I've been able to avoid the familial unit as much as possible. Due to legal issues, I can't physically harm the familial unit so I am in the process of torturing it with stress which will hopefully expedite its rate of decay along with its regularly scheduled medical conditions. (The maternal unit has arthritis and diabetes. The paternal unit has pulmonary fibrosis.)

I only got yelled at by my parents but high school was pretty hard. I had bad skin and the summer before I started I had gone through something pretty bad so I didn't talk much, and I got made fun of over both. I never told my family but they just sort of left me alone.
