Yes in law enforcement we see this a lot and child abuse calls are always the hardest calls to respond to. The sad thing is, when they come you know they are serious because not enough people get involved when a child is being abused. It is always severe by the time we are called and the children typically do not survive. It’s horrible and if there is a way to protect all children from this kind of violence those ways of prevention need to be explored.
The ex is the very type person you have to implement the strategy of disengaging. She is hard to reason with because of course she is always the victim. She’s impossible to talk to without feeling the steam of her venomous tongue. All you can do is avoid this kind of person having as little to do or say to them as possible.
Jess I’ve experienced some scary stuff but this never anything like t this. I am going to say that as a white person, I don’t expect to experience anything like this from any race or ethnic group. It’s the blatant disrespect for the law and a building that represents law and order. Who storms the State Capital anywhere? The entire ordeal is hard to wrap your mind around. It’s compounded with the claim they are Christians, that they in anyway love, respect, honor, represent, or have reverence for God. Trust me…it was an eyeopener in that it once again exposed some truths that all white people, especially the decent ones need to admit and separate from people like this even if they are family.
