I ask, What has our world come to?

What has this world come to?1

That children must witness angry parents fighting2

and screaming at one another on a daily basis.3

and feel so alone in this world.4

What has this world come to?5

That our future generation are scared for life 6

by torturing abusers. Pushed into corners7

with “ no one would believe you anyway “.8

What has this world come to?9

When a mother can take a pillow, place it10

over her babies face and take such a precious life.11

Why must our children be last to be protected?12

    The sad thing is thast these things have always happened - I know people of my generation who were abused, by trusted adults, family, and in one case by his priest. There was a case in Orkney last year where they found the skeletons of 3 children on a croft where the mother had given birth 3 times out of wedlock, and 3 times the GRANDMOTHER had murdered the newborn child rather than face the shame of raising a bastard - that was 40 years ago.

    None of this is new, we just get it shoved down our throats more now!

        You are so right - use it, scream it from the rooftops, have your say, and don't let anyone tell you different!
