My mother used to beat me and my brother when we were younger and I wish someone would have done something about it. I was very young tand therefor did nothing about the matter. One day my mother went to Mexico with my younger borther and sisters father and left us with her bfs mother who didn't feed us for two weeks. Well all we had was rice and beans once a day and finally someone took us away and we lived at a choldrens center for a year. I loved it there. We had a huige arcade, it snowed and we always had food. Now my mother is fine. I don't blame her for what she did but Iused to. My younger brother and sisters dad was very abusive and beat her everyday. He broke her arm while she was pregnant and so much other stuff. It took her 8 years to leave him! We eventually got help and now she is a great mommy, but I do wish someone would have done something about her behavior sooner so that she would have lefthim sooner.



I think whatthis mother did was ridiculous. I could never imagine hitting my son, EVER! I AM NOT going to be like my mother and the amazing thing is that I controle mytemper very well around myson. I thought for sure I would get angry with him but how could you when they are so sweet and innoccent. The mother needs help and someone needs to speak up for those children. They do not deserve to be beat, no matter what they did wrong! You did the right thing and be proud for yourself.
