Have You Ever Been Abused? By Whom?

Answer 1

No not really I just had a weird old lady is all. I mean this one time I was only 12, about to get my first kiss and she hauled me away from him accusing me of wanting to give him sex, then turned around in the same breath a couple of years later chopped my hair off so that I looked as ugly as sin, allowed my 11 y/o sister to have a 16 y/o b/f and to boot when my 5 y/o sis got kissed she bragged about it; now this she did on purpose. Later on she convinced me that I had a mental problem by taking me to psychoanalysis and getting me on anti-depressants, which I did not need, so most of my highschool years; especially my senior year I was in a drug induced state you could say. Heck I remember very little of my senior year because of it. Like I said I wasn't exaclty abused, my old lady's weird; yep she HATES me, doesn't want a damn thing to do with me, won't admit it though. No worries I've got nothing to do with her; meaning my kids don't even know who she is; I destroyed everything to do with her..

Answer 2

Quite honestly, I find this question to be bizarre. I find it equally strange that people have responded. My issue with it is that it perpetuates the whole victim mentality in a forum that's supposed to be dealing with gender and women's studies. I know abuse is an issue, but I don't know if asking people to bare their souls in a really public way like this is appropriate. You might say if I don't like it, why have I answered, and I've done so because I think it's important that this isn't turned into some bizarre tell-all site, or that people might later regret posting. I don't know...I just don't think this is the right place. A simple yes or no to having been abused is probably sufficient. Asking for the perpetrator--I just don't see the point. Sorry--I'm not trying to tell you what to do, I'm just suggesting that this question may not have been posed in the right forum.

Answer 3

When you say abused are speaking of sexual abuse or physical abuse? If you are speaking of sexual abuse yes I was when I was a little girl around 8+ and it was by my nephew and as for as physical abuse no not really I have had fights with boyfriends and of course I did not win but of course I cant whoop a man but I will give them a run for their money and if I bleed you can best believe they gonna have some scars,cuts and blood also.

Answer 4

I was put in a Catholic home when I was 5 and my parents were going thru a divorce. I was beaten several times with coat hangers by an evil nun for wetting the bed and also for not eating the "goodyear" oatmeal that was served at breakfast! Bed wetting wasnt a common thing for me, but it is quite common when any child that age who is separated from their family and put in a strange place! This occurred back in 1956.

Answer 5

Not me but i have a really good friend who has an abusive dad.One time i had a sleepover with a bunch of other friends and she couldn't go because of her dad.So we called her up on the phone and while we were on the phone (speaker phone) her dad hit her.It Was really scary hearing it. She moved so i don't see her anymore. :( :( She's 14 and it's been happening since she was 8.

Answer 6

When I was a kid I was abused by a babysitter. She'd do psychological things to mess with my mind. She was a very creepy woman (later arrested by the police). She'd make us breakfast (I stayed at her house with other children) but she'd make me eat it in the hallway alone, after telling me she'd poisoned it. She'd make up stories about police coming after my mom and I on Saturdays and told stories to the other children and wouldn't let them play with me. If any kid did, he was taken away from me and told I was "naughty" (I was a very well behaed kid). I was also a very bright kid, but she had me so terrified that I fell for stuff I normally wouldn't have. Very, very strange stuff she did to me. I went for several months. I don't know if it was really.....abuse....but it certainly wasn't good. That was...11 years ago, I'm seventeen now.

Answer 7

Yes I was physically, emotionally and sexually abused by my mother's first husband and emotionally abused by my mother's second husband who she is currently married to. My first stepfather sexually abused me from the ages of 7-8 by taking showers with me, stopped sexually abusing me when I was 9 and started up again when I turned 10 by sleeping with me and fondling my breasts. He took a bath with me at the age of 12 and molested me. He intoxicated me at the age of 13 and I passed out. He slammed me onto my hands and knees when I was 13. Spanked me, backhanded me across the face, backhanded me across the head, smacked me across the mouth any time I brought home a D or a F on my report card, or iterm report and smacked me for getting D's and F's on my math homework from 4th grade to 6th. He also called me a retard and said I'd never amont to anything in my life. My second stepfather emotionally abused me by calling me a *********. and a retard and stupid and anything else he could think of and my mother let him do this.
