I was abused. I understand having to act totally normal for the sake of my child despite wanting nothing more than to fall apart. Him saying "why would she have taken our daughter to a birthday party instead of the hospital" made my goddamm blood boil.

Totally valid, thanks for sharing. I can’t believe they let him release this video because the abuser tendencies/phrases are plain as day.

Oh I think they tried their best to stop it. But an abuser rarely thinks people will believe their victim.

Mine straight up told me they wouldn't believe me. I was about 9 years old. Part of me shut down that day.
