> I owned 2 pet rabbits. I wasn't taken care of them good enough, so my father shot them in their cage. My mom made them for dinner and made me eat them, telling me only later it was my pet rabbits, not chicken.
> Spanking me and my brother with a ruler, until it cut through the skin and left me unable to sit comforatablly for days. We were not allowed to cry while she beat us or it would last longer and she would hit harder. She thought this was funny with her evil laughter. We were threatened with that she would kill us if we told our dad or anyone else.
> For years I was told my brothers brain damage was caused by a mistake made by a doctor when he was born. Well after taking him to a nerualigist as an adult, after a lot of testing, found out that the brain damage was caused by severe head trama common in child abuse of a bad car accident. He was never in an accident.

>I'm constantly astonished that people can be so cruel, especially to children. It's odd to think that nowadays there's so much fear of strangers when most abused children are abused by members of their families.
I'm so sorry to hear about your rabbits, and about the physical abuse. You're doing a great job with your own kids, expecially considering your history. It's wonderful to hear that you can be such a great mom after your own mom set such a shockingly poor example.
Good for you.
