As I continued to read on I thought a lot about how this was affecting him mentally. I tried to put my self in his position but it was difficult for me to even imagine being verbally abused at the level he was. I knew that there definitely had to be damage that could affect him in years to come. One thing that crossed my mind was depression. I figured if the person who brought you into this world could treat you like shit, then how valuable could you feel.
I looked into statistics and learned that many children raised in an abusive home are more likely than not, to raise their kids in the same environment. They grow to raise their kids the same way because that’s what they were taught. I feel its saddening to hear just how bad some people have. To me it helps me realize that I have it made compared to many others. (Below is a link on depression symptoms.)
