URGENT: Anyone gets abused by family here?
-
Hello,
I'm actually a mass communication student, doing a story on domestic violence. Basically it covers on what happens if a person is abused, but is not covered by child abuse laws because he/she is above 16 but below 21. But I need some 'case studies'.
I need some people whom I can actually conduct an email interview with. Or if you don't mind, you can also paste your scenario here. Your identities will be kept confidential! If you're uncomfortable, your screen names will do.
All I ask is for your scenario, like what happened with you and the situation now and what did you do. Oh, you'll also need to be above 16..
Please help! I'm so dead if I can't find anyone =/
So sorry if this is not the correct place to post this, I'm really, really desperate. Thanks! (: -
kanna beaten up, then order for a PPO, but relatives convinced her not to, only to end up being verbally abused and physically roughed up till now, count or not?
-
YES! more than counted! (:
super good example.
can have more details please? like how old was she, why was she beaten up, who applied for the ppo for her, how did she cough out the money etc etc.
more details the better!
if you're not comfortable, tell me! can give you my email.. (:
and ok with revealing the name or..? -
You seems to be very ecstatic about people getting abuse
-
Although this happens, this kind of problems are not readily disclosed.
-
yeah exactly.
that is why it's kind of hard to find interviewees.
which might possibly be the reason why i seem ecstatic, but is actually not the case. if i were to find joy in the abuse of children, i would not even have bothered writing a story on what can a person do if a similar scenario happens. a scenario would be the personal touch which will hopefully draw more readers.
i mean, who would want to read something linear, can get it straight off the internet on procedures.
yeah, so i'm banking on identity will be kept confidential in hopes of people opening up. =/ -
Most likely people would not know they had been abused. They would think its discipline. And the abused victims tends to be very young children or babies, which means it would be hard to remember that period of time when they grow into adults.
Or you could just fabricate data. Mr X or whatever was abused as a child. His mom put him into the washing machine, hung him on the ceiling fan while his dad burn ciggarattes all over his body. -
omg that's quite sick! i hope that don't actually happen.
and i'm not exactly finding for children who get abused, more like exploring people who are abused but not considered as a child anymore.
cause the law only considers it a child abuse case if the kid is below 16. so yeap, finding out what happens between 17 to 20, when someone is not a legal adult yet.
and nah, dont want to fabricate!
bah, ok i'm gonna crash, i hope pray that more people will replyyyyyyy =/ -
Kena abused by bf can ?
-
nah cannot, family only....
-
does negligence count? that's like mental abuse
[Edit]: Since you want a story and no one is replying
Doesn't have to be domestic violence if you don't mind. -
TS, approach a Family Service Center or talk to some lawyers who are active in Family Court.
Talk to the people in the Social Work Department in NUS to find out more, they study these things on a more regular basis and might be able to help you out. -
the person whom posted that reply lah...Originally posted by herbiggestsecret:YES! more than counted! (:
super good example.

I understand ur situation. But please seek psychogical help as you did have fears in you till now. You must conquer the fear and not the other way around.
This fear will affect your upgrown character and your outgoing attitude towards outsiders. Your fear may affect your family or ur son. You may have violent images install in your sub consicous and may release out in an urge. That mean you will learnt what you had suffered and apply to ur son , wife or any other realative. SO get urself cured right now.
An example i can list out. IN NS, why an old bird official will sabo or tekan young regulars. Because they suffered during their old days.
Well. The brain has many section to analyse. I will list out the two la.
First one is the learning department. THis department very stupid one. Learnt whatever you see.
Second is the logical department. This department will filter out the bad one and transfer to the memory department so you will remember that is bad and dun do it. If your department here is defective, then you will tend to learn the bad thing lo and apply it to the other lo. This is what people call EQ la. Aiya fark it la go read up. -

I can feel the fears you had even though i do not experience it. I knew and i can imagine it. But just that i wanted to show concern and do no any ill intention of hurting you.
I am sharing as TS has requested. Please refrain from asking me to do this or do that or I will move this discussion offline. I am not seeking help here so please just keep to the topic at hand. <<<< well you are defensive in this statement and it shows that it is still haunting you.
Ok i will keep my mouth shut. Kind heart would not get pay off is true. -
I know you are concern that is why i said thank you for your concern but at the same time i also do not want this thread to degenerate into one that have ppl offering all sort of advice...
For me this happened a long time ago.. i am sharing this publicly because i believe there are more suffering right now at this moment... to encourage them to speak up too... People share when they know others understand and had been in their shoes...
There is nothing defensive about my statement. I am just stating my preferences and being upfront that I do not need people who do not know who I am ( well you cannot even get my gender correct) to comment on what I need to do or not..
There is nothing to gain nothing to lose... by just listening in a thread that people are just suppose to listen if nothing relevant to TS topic can be contributed. And if you really are so concerned, feel free to PM me. Leave your judgements behind. Imagine a 16 yr old girl reading your statment, she will be thinking oh i better not speak up because people are going to see me as a kid with all these tons of troubles and im going to get tons of pushy messages asking me to seek help when im not ready to speak out?
I speak with fact and reason. No need for mocking remarks such as "Ok i will keep my mouth shut. Kind heart would not get pay off is true."Originally posted by xcloud23x:I can feel the fears you had even though i do not experience it. I knew and i can imagine it.

With the use of the words "fark it la", you have discredited your own EQ and credibility in this serious discussion we have thus far.
May I ask how old are you?Originally posted by xcloud23x:I understand ur situation. But please seek psychogical help as you did have fears in you till now. You must conquer the fear and not the other way around.
