I Am a Child Abuse Survivor

I really like how this is worded as survivor instead of victim.

survivor > victim

I was a victim, then a survivor and now I'm a fricken warrior!

there's actually a "I am a child abuse victim" group here too lucian..
Maybe this one was started by a victim of abuse who felt that they had overcome the pain and found thier strength again....

the strength of being a survivor, of not allowing the experience to define them or hold them back from being happy.

For a whole new dimension in child abuse (as well as adult abuse because my abuse continued into my adult life), please read my story under I Am Angry.

not to be rude, but it's probably that way due to how many people "confuse" the two words...

@lucian: I may be 15, but i don't act like a kid. (granted i have my immature moments, as does everyone else.) and what's wrong with someone being up or waking up early?

and how are you, some who has only been an "Adult" for/up to four years, (According to your profile) for/up to Four years mind you, less than half your time as a child, going to have any influence over me?

@lucian: Firstly, i'm not being a little shit, secondly, there's no such thing as a "bullshit" answer, what i responded with was true, many people try to act like a "victim" and as i'm sure you know, there's a big difference in being a survivor and being a victim...

As for trying to act superior... not in the slightest. you treated me like a child, so i gave a response proving i wasn't, if you don't like that, well, then too bad? as for the grammar.... you might wanna re-read what i said, no one, no one at all even brought up the word grammar other than you...

If you can tell me to "Move along" then you, yourself, should be able to do the same...

I don't get what's the big deal they are both the same damn thing
