I've had several people leave comments about it, as well as email me privately. It has touched the hearts of many, some of whom had experienced similar things in their childhood.<BR/><BR/>Now I must try to find the deeper courage, which I don't know if I possess, to write about how history oftentimes repeats itself. My son was raped multiple times by a minister in our church, when he was only seven and eight years old. The diabolical domino effects this brought onto our family helps me better understand how <B>some</B> victims later become perpetrators themselves. While I personally only became somewhat promiscuous and ultimately married very young to an abusive man, my son grew up to become a perpetrator. His victims? My two daughters. I don't know that I have the strength or courage to write that story. To write that story, including what lead to my disowning my son, might be one people need to read, but I believe most would run like hell away from it. I wish I could.Telling It Like It Ishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04385980365948466941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449166471595643937.post-11360030249973221122007-11-09T20:05:00.000-06:002007-11-09T20:05:00.000-06:00@ Telling - Your writing moved me to tears.

It takes a lot to make me tear up, and you've done it with this incredibly nice review.<BR/><BR/>It's such a shame that too often people are turned away, or perhaps they actually RUN away, after reading topics of abuse. <BR/><BR/>Fortunately I write about happy things too. But, it's important for me to use my "voice" in this way, because far too many people are silent. If I were an animal, I'd be a LION. ROAR! :)<BR/><BR/>Thank you sweetie, that was incredible.Telling It Like It Ishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04385980365948466941noreply@blogger.com
