I don't believe you, I checked your photos, you are so beautiful, alive, smiling, enjoying good time with your friends, doing activities and having fun.
Kids who get the belt are miserable, sad, afraid to smile or have fun, their friends abandon them, they don't look healthy, and live in fear so they look pale.

@TakenDown232 Lots of abused kids learn to put up a good front, especially if their parents are prominent in the community. My mother was the director of a nursery school and considered a child development expert. She once threatened to strangle me and kill me if I didn't smile at people all day long. To show me what she meant, she held me down on my bed by my neck and cut off my air. I almost passed out. I got up, dried my tears, and joined her social gathering, and I smiled all day long.

@greenmountaingal oh wow, your mom was serious.

@TakenDown232 It happened at my 8th birthday party.

@greenmountaingal Oh my, what a birthday party.
greenmountaingal · 70-79, F
@TakenDown232 I still hate birthdays, especially my own.

@greenmountaingal sorry dear, you have to beat your hate. Do a birthday that you like.

@TakenDown232 I don't feel full of hate. But I do have many sad or frightening memories. This year, a friend is taking me out for my birthday. I don't have enough friends for a party.

@greenmountaingal you don't need friends but some good people from your circle.
