How To Survive The Memories of An Abusive Parent (How To Survive As A Woman
Surviving the Memories of an Abusive Parent
Some of us have extremely pleasant memories of our childhood, while others only wish they could forget the many horrific memories of misery and abusive treatment that continue to plague them years later well into adulthood.
During my extensive studies and interviews with young and older adults who were victims of abuse during childhood, I have found one common denominator: the suppressed memories of abuse from their parents in times past. A few years ago, child abuse was considered a private matter, much like domestic violence and wife beating.
I would like to share with you an outstanding example of one individual I interviewed. Please understand that I am not sharing this experience with you just as a "Boohoo, poor me" account, but rather as a tool that might possibly assist others - those who have had the same or similar experiences growing up and are seeking help in surviving the memories of an abusive past. Additionally, we have some encouragement for parents currently raising children.
I am confident that the following experience will assist many in not only facing the past, but will help in deleting the memories that can have a negative impact on your future. Read along as I interview the man we called Carl.
