 This is a common fear..
by: Brandy Shirley, M.A.

Good advice John!!

Being afraid that you'll continue to experience abuse once you've grown up is a common fear among child abuse survivors.

Until the survivor understands what it means to love oneself, it's common to find other people who'll remind them of their abusive past.

Please know, however, that you are not destined to repeat the abuse. Just because you grew up in an abusive household doesn't mean you'll be involved in future abusive relationships. It all really boils down to you and the choices you make for yourself.

My best,
Brandy

 repetition of the past.
by: John 76 USA

Hi
It is not true an abused person does not have to repeat the past. It happens to people who are unable to separate themselves from the past. If you want a person can go on to do the opposite of what was done to them. You have to decide what people were supposed to do and especially those who were abused should know better. In my opinion those who were abused should know better and they of all people should never allow abuse to take place, by their own hand, or by others. You can and should stop abuse when you see it take place.
Stop abuse.

 Brave

I was very touched by your story, I cannot believe that your parents could be so utterly cruel and I guess your brothers knew no better. Yet despite all you suffered you have clearly gone on to become a loving father yourself and have not perpetuated their behaviour.
I can understand your frustration when people say 'get over it' - they really have no idea.
May God bless you!
