    I can understand that, but at the same time, it's really not good. I'd say anticipate it, but don't wish for it.

    Perhaps hope was the wrong word. Anticipate sounds much better

    Your want isn't for him to hit you, it's for the opportunity to take action. That's why I undersntand.

    Look on the web or watch TV. It's horrible to think about the violence among family members.

    What I am saying is go on the web and search for the statistics of child abuse. You are NOt going to like what you find. The statistics will horrify you.

    Child Abuse in America...
    Children are suffering from a hidden epidemic of child abuse and neglect. Over 3 million reports of child abuse are made every year in the United States; however, those reports can include multiple children. In 2007, approximately 5.8 million children were involved in an estimated 3.2 million child abuse reports and allegations.

    Man in East Midlands killed his two children aged three and four and committed suicide...

    An Alabama man is accused of killing his four young children...

    A man and his wife allegedly killed their three children in Orissa’s Bargarh district because they could not manage to feed them...

    In San-Zhong near Taipei, a man and his wife killed their two little boys, putting them in a sealed room filled with carbon monoxide, and committed suicide...




    Poverty, revenge, financial problems... all these reasons are silly enough to let the children breath their last.

    In an incident of infanticide in Tamil Nadu, a mother named Lakshmi squeezed the milky sap from an oleander shrub, mixed it with castor oil, and forced the poisonous potion down the new-born's throat. The baby bled from the nose, then died soon afterward...

    Andrea Yates, a mother of five who methodically drowned all of her children in a bathtub then calmly called police...

    News paper reports are shocking as well as alarming. Even though parental love is incomparable, there are several reported incidents of fillicide, child murder by parents. Most of the times the innocent children are murdered by their own parents for silliest reasons, and in several cases the kids were mere victims of the revenge of father or mother towards their partner. Some studies suggest that because of some sort of mental instability parents murder their own children.

    Parents killing their children is not rare. Statistics say that between three and five children are killed by their parents in the U.S. every day and more than 200 women kill their children in the U.S. every year. If it is the case with the highly civilised America, what would be the situation in other countries, especially in the third world countries.

    The parents who kill their children for whatever reasons, consider their children as a commodity, not for sure, as human beings. Thus they are slaughtered when parents cannot feed them, they are killed when parents are afraid of social problems, kids are murdered to satisfy the cheap revenge against their mother or father.


    This is the facts as horrible as they are.

    Walk through the mall and watch a mom viciously jerk a child's arm or yell when the child wants to go in a different direction or is overtired or wants candy that a store temptingly displays at the checkout registers. Is that abuse? Abuse of a child, especially emotional abuse, is so subtle that we don't even notice it most of the time. And if it happens in public, one can only imagine what happens at home.

    You are one of the lucky ones, you're old enough to walk out and you are finally getting help. Some of these little children aren't old enough to fight for themselves. I'm proud of you! :):):)
