Why I oppose spanking
TW: Mild self-harm
I was spanked as a child. I was a well-behaved youngster who needed little discipline and was generally obedient and respectful to the best of my ability. I can probably count the number of times I was spanked on my fingers. I was not scarred for life by this ordeal, I am well-adjusted, and I have never reacted by being violent to others. To all appearances, I am a testament to the value of the practice of spanking.
And yet, I oppose it. Vehemently.
This was not always so. For most of my life, I assumed that spanking was a generally useful practice that taught kids to expect consequences to their actions. It promo

In Which Middle School is Hell
I can still remember with perfect clarity the day in eighth grade when a boy walked up to me at my locker and said, “Hey cutie.” I was sweaty, having just come from gym class, and I was only at my locker to buy some time before I had to go to math class where the teacher hated me and the numbers didn’t make any sense. But there was a boy standing next to me and he called me cute and I had no idea what to say. As it turned out I didn’t have to say anything because the girl he was with just laughed, a cut off cackle into the oversized purse she was fishing through. I turned back to my locker, not saying a word because I

Abused Angels -child abuse-
They are Angels
They are Angels given to us as gifts.
They are Angels so fragile and helpless.
They are Angels so innocent and young.
They are Angels so precious and golden.
All they want is for someone to hold them.
All they want is someone to kiss them.
All they want is for someone to protect them.
All they want is a best friend.
All they want is love.
Most treasure these Angels
But there are some who take these miracle for granted.
These people take advantage of how helpless they are.
These people take their angers and frustrations out on these Angels.
These people hurt their gifts.
These people abuse their children.

Bullying had a huge impact on my life. I let go and forgave it all only recently, but the memories still hurt.
I know how cruel bullying is and how awful it makes a person feel. Nobody should spend their lives worrying about everything the way I do. I know that bullying may never truly stop, but I hope my Affirmations For Bullying Victims message helps someone feel less alone.
I already had one person respond to tell me my words made them decide against suicide. These words can save lives. They apply to everyone, even the bullies who are being bullied. Maybe my message will make them see they don't have to bully others. A long shot, I know, but I have to try.
I needed to hear the Affirmations I wrote. They weren't there back then, but they are here now. I mean every word. You are all wonderful, special people, and I love you.

I feel sorry for you. I was in my old school bullied too but not so worst as by you.
I hope you have better time as in the past.
