A Kid Will Only Remember The Pain/fear That Comes With A Hit, Not Why They Got Hit. All The Parent Is

A kid will only remember the pain/fear that comes with a hit, not why they got hit. All the parent is teaching is fear.

If the child is old enough to understand why they're being hit, they should never be hit. That is when you teach them the lesson without violence or pain.

Never, ever, hit a child. They don't remember why you hurt them, only that they were hurt, and that shatters trust.

If your parents hit you but it was only once in a while, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but never left a mark, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but never with a closed fist, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but never in the face, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but never with an object, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but said they were sorry after, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but only when you were really acting out, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but it was only spanking, that was abuse.

If your parents hit you but stopped once you got to a certain age, that was abuse.

If your parents never hit you but they shoved you, grabbed you roughly, scratched you or dug their nails into your skin, pulled your hair, or otherwise put hands on you out of anger, that was abuse.

If an adult did any of those things to another adult they were arguing with at the grocery store, it would be considered assault. If an adult did any of those things to their romantic partner it would be considered domestic violence. It's not any more okay when a parent does it to a defenseless child.

I spent most of my life not realizing I was abused because I wasn't being beaten, and I spent even longer thinking the abuse was only emotional.

When you switch out

Sometimes being disabled means you can't go to college, can't get a job, have to live with your parents and that's ok. For a lot of us it means not being able to go outside most days, not being able to get up or move at all. It can mean needing someone to wash us or feed us or help us with the bathroom and that is ok. It doesn't mean that we're less than or that we aren't worth anything.

And it's valid for us to be mad about it. Even if we can overcome some of these things with accomodations we're allowed to be mad that we're in this situation, and wish that we weren't disabled because I sure as hell hate this shit.

this is what Kaden sends after he walks into a wall, hard enough to make our nose bleed (which isn't that hard, our nose always bleeds)

Idk if I need to be worried or not.
