Some Things Will Shock You In Life

[Anonymous]

I was born with a dad that was a drug addict and alcoholic. He damaged my life for good and somethings I just can't forget. He use to hit me all the time with the belt and mark my body. When my mom would come to defend me he use to hit her too. I couldn't tell anyone or the school I was so afraid of him. I lived a living hell and I wish he would die. I remember he try to kill my mom with a knife. I was screaming and yelling please don't kill my mom. I ran so fast to defend my mom that when he tried to stab her he cut me. I went to grab the knife he sliced my hand he was high on heroin. My mom started yelling and crying after this I blacked out.

My dad left running saying sorry and crying. What a coward he was I had a lot of hate towards him for years. But as I got older I learned how to forgive even though it hurts. We are very close now like nothing ever happen. I did express how I felt and hated him at one point in time. He does not do drugs no more but still drinks. Sometimes you can move on but the memories can not be erased. But you only get one dad and one mom in life try to make the best of it.

There is more to this mytake so deep and more to my life but I can not share. You guys can comment but I will not answer anyone I want to keep myself anonymous. Thank you for reading and hope you guys learn something from this.

Since I never experienced anything close to this in my family I find it hard to understand or even imagine how cruel fathers and mothers can be to their kids and to each other. A family is supposed to love each other. Makes me sad that messed up families exist. One member needs to take serious action when something like this occurs. Maybe it can be scary if you think about what the crazy member can do if you try to run away, call police, or whatever, but I say it's better to take the risk than suffer through pain and fear like this. Find a way to protect yourself. I read that many women carry pepper spray and other things when going out.

I was shocked by a 9 volt battery and it's capacity for pain.
