Oh, you beautiful young girl. Let me wrap my arms around you and tell you how special you are and how very sorry that I am that you parents won't stop to listen to you.

Sometimes parents have their own stress, pressures, and they don't realize it, but they take it all out on you. And you don't deserve it.

Would it help you if you started a journal? Do you have a notebook handy that you could grab a pen or pencil and just start writing down everything that you feel right now? I have done this when I am very angry, and it has helped.

No child should ever be slapped......and I am not happy with your Dad for doing that to his beloved daughter. I am sure he doesn't mean to hurt you either.

Please, keep posting and telling us what is going on.

Foam, you cannot give up - you don't realize how very special you are........and I know how hurt and misunderstood you must feel right now.

Please post again and soon.

Stop and hug your beautiful dog, let him help you heal right now.
