About me
As someone who has lived through adversity, neglect, abuse, and rape, I offer a unique perspective on these sensitive topics. While I'm not an expert, my experiences and observations of others navigating similar challenges have shaped my understanding. I aim to share my journey and insights through this blog, "The child the system forgot."
I approach these difficult subjects carefully and delicately, omitting the most graphic details to ensure respect for those affected. My goal is to shed light on the experiences of children raised in difficult situations, emphasizing that they don't always succumb to negative statistics. Many become law-abiding citizens with decent jobs, defying expectations and challenging conventional wisdom.
My hope is that this blog provides understanding and validation for readers who have similar experiences, proving that positive outcomes are possible despite adversity. It's about giving voice to those whose stories are often silenced or misrepresented, and challenging the prevailing narratives around childhood trauma and its lasting effects.
