I Love Helping Others But I Need Help Back Sometimes Too

I'm a mn ER nurse. I've seen so much human hurt and peril it hurts to think about.
Tonight was so much worse than I've seen ever.
Why do people stay with overly abusive counterparts? I can somewhat see an excuse for just them, but when tiny children are involved...
please, please help the ones that can't help themselves. I wanted to steal 2 children tonight just to try to prove to them some people want to just care and love them.🙁

Well I could be wrong but that's where the law comes in and presses charges themselves because the victim will not or to scared to. I could but when a victim of domestic abuse goes into hospital the hospital is suppose to call the police or do I have that all wrong?

You are right however the children then go into foster care which they did. I can only pray that they are kept together and most of all they get a wonderful foster home.

@Havegreatfriends: Well sometimes foster care is better than what they are living in at the moment.

I suppose but those poor children. It's impossible to have a heart that doesn't get crushed with cases like this. I've had parents come back and ask me to make a statement on their behalf before. I really wish they had a heart like the poor babies hearts they've crushed.

@Havegreatfriends: Well that is to bad that parents need the help of hospital staff to protect there kids.

@updown2020: I truly wished I could do more. I wanted to grab them and hug them until they cried. The youngest one was so desensitized to it he didn't getting ailment for 2nd degree burns. Everyone cries with that. Poor lil guy.😭☹️
