My mother refused to defend me against my father for years. Weekend mornings were always met by his demands. Within a few minutes she would witness, once again, her oldest, teen aged daughter lying next to her husband, but chose to do nothing about it.
If Something Doesn’t Seem Right, Do Something.

That is awful. Breaks my heart. I even consider slapping a child in the face a form of child abuse.

I know, it breaks my heart too. If a child doesn’t have somebody in their life they can trust, one has to ask, “Who can they trust?” I continue to struggle with trust issues. You’re right, any kind of physical contact, done out of anger, or loss of self-control is detrimental to our children’s futures.
