78. that is the definition of "liberation"
Millions of women the world over are trapped in abusive situations. Untold millions. Often, they stay so their children can eat.

Sometimes families won't rally round with support. Sometimes the money won't come. In those cases, we can create intentional families with understanding people, and help each other.

The burden on those of us who have been there is to tell those just realizing their situation that they are not alone. This particular sorrow is, tragically, the way of the world.

And, since this has not been specifically stated on this thread, here it is:

Abuse is never the victim's fault. Never.
