I think its times like these when we know the people in our communities who truly care and those who take advantage of a fight for justice to get free vodka

@Blair-Jade OMG great story tbh when I first saw this I was kinda iffy cuz I usually don't like books that people ask me to read and when you said sexual assault I was worried about how you would portray it but honestly you handled everything so well so great book you gave me something to do on this boring wednesday

I noticed lately that a lot of females seem to really see themselves as independent and strong yet still put up with abusive relationships with the idea that "im his wife so I must be patient an do this as a duty to my kids" despite  their kids suffering in the environment. I suppose perhaps they feel as though their kids should be raised in a stable home but when its clearly not going to work why continue? I personally find that weak to continue to think you are being patient by putting up with abuse. It is strong to put up with abuse of course, but thinking its powerful to get hit and insulted yet stay silent is wrong.  Don't get me wrong, its strong to have responsibility and care about your kids first but perhaps its because I personally have a sharp tongue I could never imagine sitting quietly.  Anyway, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this subject.

YES exactly! There are people out there that believe that god rewards you for your patience  with your abusive husband so you should just stay and pray for him. This encourages not only the abuser but also society as a whole to look away from abuse. I dont care how religious you are IT IS NOT OKAY TO MAKE ABUSE SOME KIND OF REWARD SYSTEM. abuse is abuse and if someone is abusive don't pray for him and be patient GET THE HELL OUT. Ugh there is also the problem alot of woman face that "if I leave I will have to fight for my rights and will be shunned by society for being divorced I'll fight hard and get nothing in the end and lose everything I have left" I hear this especially from woman who do not have a support system and have children  they are afraid of being alone. UGH things like this are so sad.

@marshMelisso I could never understand staying in an abusive relationship ESPECIALLY with kids because not only are they endangering themself but the life of another. another being who they hold responsiblity to nonetheless. I dont get how it can be seen as strong because there is nothing the victim can gain from an abusive relationship much less the trauma they force themself to endure and their kid has to watch and stay silent cuz that's what momma does too. its traumatic and many people who grew up in abusive houses suffer years later from it. now I understand sometimes the abuser holds financial power or political power so they have no choice to stay silent but it comes a choice. this is specifically to ones with children. it's not just their life that's being affected. what's strong is to realize what's going on, plan to leave and actually get out and do better with their life. overcoming adversity instead of staying or falling back into another toxic relationship. that's smart and that's strong. whew what a rant

@Typical_NERD1726  sometimes I get told I only think this because im young and don't know what responsibility is but I will never allow myself to be hurt by others. Glad to see someone agrees
