I’ve no problem with the fact that some adults don’t want to friend minors and I believe that should be respected. However,twice now I’ve accepted friend requests from adults who have then been indignant to learn that I’m a minor and unfriended me. I respect that anyone has the right to unfriend me. However, if you don’t want to friend minors just don’t send me a request. My age is on my profile a... » Continue Reading
January 1st is my birthday and I’ll be turning 15. I’m just curious to know who else on here has their birthday during the Christmas and New Year. » Continue Reading
Today I came across a blog from someone about how he doesn’t want minors adding him. I suggested that he add a note to his profile so that we know not to add him. Then another commenter told me that he still gets friend requests from minors despite it being on his own profile that he doesn’t want it. He said that other adults have had the same experience. I believe in the right of adults and minor... » Continue Reading
As those who are familiar with my post history will know I have an amazing and adorable girlfriend called Andrea. We absolutely really do love each other. Anyway my mom has a cousin who sometimes visits us. ( Don’t get me wrong because my mom’s cousin is a nice person and I like her other than what I’m about to tell you about). She teases me about my having a girlfriend and tells me that it’s “onl... » Continue Reading
One of my greatest worries is ever becoming anything like my dad. Those familiar with my story will know that for most of my life me and my mom suffered from the cruelty and evil of my dad (although he does now seem to have mended his ways). My mom,by contrast,has always been an exceptionally good and kind hearted person. I’ve always tried to follow my mom’s example and be as much like her (and as... » Continue Reading
This morning during morning play time I saw a boy and girl arguing. The boy started hitting the girl. I told him to stop but he just carried on doing it. I went over and pushed him away from her and stood between them to protect her. He then tried to push past me to get at her so I punched him. As I punched him a teacher appeared and gave me a detention while he got away with it because the teache... » Continue Reading
I recently made a blog about how people should stop treating SA and other forms of abuse as something to joke about. One person commented that it was people posting about their experiences that caused people to respond with that kind of humour. I pointed out that that was like blaming a rape victim because of how she was dressed and told him to stop victim blaming. He called me “reactionary and im... » Continue Reading
With all that I have been through it would be so easy to allow myself to be bitter and consumed with hatred for those who have treated me so badly but I refuse to follow that path. In this blog I intend to explain why I prefer instead to follow the more positive path of forgiveness. (1) As a Christian I believe that forgiveness is pleasing to God. (2)Bitterness and hate impede your healing whereas... » Continue Reading
I recently came across a post by someone joking about being a pedo. I added a comment pointing out that as a minor who has actually been targeted by a pedo I found it offensive. For background information I will briefly mention that prior to the incident with the pedo I had already survived horrific abuse. Firstly from a controlling dad with a violent temper and then as a TTI survivor. So,having a... » Continue Reading
When I’ve got school the next day my mom enforces an 11PM bedtime but I’m always lay there awake and bored for hours. Bedtime has been a cut off point for me being on here but not anymore. As someone pointed out to me with the mobile app I can take my phone to bed with me and go on commenting and replying until I’m ready to sleep. Alright, I suppose I shouldn’t really do that but it’s way better t... » Continue Reading
When I was nearing the end of the wilderness program I was hopeful that soon I would be going home but I was also wary. It was not unknown for kids to have it sprung on them that they would either be made to do the whole program again from the start or be sent not home but to a follow on residential program. When I was actually allowed to go home I felt so relieved. Unfortunately my relief was sho... » Continue Reading
In this blog I’m going to describe some specific memories including incidents of the abusive behaviour of the staff to myself and to other kids. Battle of wills with the fake therapist. The woman with whom we had the so called individual therapy sessions was an obvious fake. I doubt she’s ever even read a book about therapy let alone actually trained as a therapist. From the very start I clashed w... » Continue Reading
