For many years, I had no hope for a better future. I thought I would never grow up, that I would always live in a world of pain and hate. You see, I was a battered and abused child. I was placed into two foster homes and later returned to my parents. I almost lost the chance to grow up. At the age of two, I was admitted to a hospital–malnourished, battered, almost dead. I later wished that I was dead. I was placed on top of a hot stove, choked with a rope around my neck, beaten two to four times almost every day. This physical and mental abuse made up almost 18 years of my childhood. My older brother and sister were not abused.

One individual who makes his story know in many ways, from radio to TV is Paul McLaughlin, The Abuse Man. Whether it is standing on a street corner or talking with someone at a grocery store Paul is always on the job to make people aware of abuse and telling them what to do about it. He is an inspiration to us all. Read his story of abuse and see for yourself what abuse is. Then ask yourself this question, How long are we going to sit around and let this happen?
