Hello Gary That was a David V Goliath experience for you. On my many years here on Earth, and as a woman I have often despaired at how often women are the ‘gatekeepers’ of female abuse in communities. They allow their daughters to be given away in forced marriages, or they ignore sexual abuse gong on it their homes, or they fail to seek justice for their children harmed in society. A friend of mine had been abused for many years by her father. He mother came to our home for a visit, she lived in another country. One morning at breakfast when my friend was out of the room, we were discussing the abuse which my friend had been speaking about to her. Out of earshot of this conversation this woman admitted to me that she knew some was going on, but she was afraid to reveal it. It shocked me. But that’s how some women are. They look out for their own skins on their backs, children seem to be let to fare for themselves. An animal shows more care to its young. But ultimately you have to forgive these women, they were made to be like this. The only way to stop it is to break the cycle. Take the words of children seriously, let them see justice done. I used to be a very good rock thrower in my day! Glad you got him a few times. He knew he was exposed. And a child hurt him, and by hitting a kid he looks weak. I’d like to think he learned a lesson, but you and I live in the real world, and that rarely happens. Each experience as a child is a building block. Some experiences just build unstable towers. It’s only a short time being a child, one would think people would just focus and try to build a strong boy, rather than trying to repair a broken man. All the best Gary T
Thank you so much for allowing me to read your story and transcribe it. I am so proud of you for what you did to stand up for your sister, and thinking of you now from Boston, MA. I hope you are staying safe and healthy.
