Comments : How did we get here?

    A good write here with a strong and powerful message that people should listen to. Domestic violence really is a terrible thing, not least because the cases we hear about are only the ones we HEAR about. Unfortunately, so many women (though it happens to men as well) are so scared and intimidated, their stories are never told - often, until it is too late.
    All the best and well done here,
    Ben

    Hello,

    Firstly, well done for writing this. Secondly, posting it here for all to read the voice of experience.
    I will nominate this to support this cause.

    Well done,

    People are quick to judge but they really don't know the story behind it. Abuse does exist and the truth needs to be told. This write touched me and those voices must be heard. Abuse is awful and it has nothing to do with love. It's power and control. Be blessed and take care. Add to my favorite

    Well written Cara,

    Admire the courage you showed - sharing this poem.

    Liked these lines-
    Do not pretend to know my story,
    Or assume that we are the same.

    All the very best and take care.

    Jay.
