Sweet Jane 61 Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I was sent this email today from a friend. It is heart wrenching and you will cry and be angry but I feel it should be read by everyone. Feel free to copy and email to anyone. I hope no one takes offense, I just feel so strongly when it comes to the children of our world. We need to protect them always. Solly My name is Sarah I am but three, My eyes are swollen I cannot see, I must be stupid, I must be bad, What else could have made My daddy so mad? I wish I were better, I wish I weren't ugly, Then maybe my Mommy Would still want to hug me. I can't speak at all, I can't do a wrong Or else I'm locked up All the day long. When I awake I'm all alone The house is dark My folks aren't home. When my Mommy does come I'll try and be nice, So maybe I'll get just One whipping tonight. Don't make a sound! I just heard a car My daddy is back From Charlie's Bar. I hear him curse My name he calls I press myself Against the wall. I try and hide From his evil eyes I'm so afraid now I'm starting to cry. He finds me weeping He shouts ugly words, He says its my fault That he suffers at work. He slaps me and hits me And yells at me more, I finally get free And I run for the door. He's already locked it And I start to bawl, He takes me and throws me Against the hard wall. I fall to the floor With my bones nearly broken, And my daddy continues With more bad words spoken. "I'm sorry!", I scream But its now much too late His face has been twisted Into unimaginable hate. The hurt and the pain Again and again Oh please God, have mercy! Oh please let it end! And he finally stops And heads for the door, While I lay there motionless Sprawled on the floor. My name is Sarah And I am but three, Tonight my daddy Murdered me.

Tenacious_Peaches Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 It's important for everyone to be aware of this subject, but I just about can't take it. I really didn't read the whole thing...I kind of skimmed through it. I want to go pick up my daughter so I can hug her and tell her how much I love her.

Elvish Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 So sad - brought tears to my eyes. I try to avoid the news, but hear sad stories every day. It's hard to comprehend how someone could be so evil to an innocent, unspoiled child. Especially their own. It absolutely baffles me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I've been sent this a few times over the last few years, it is gut wrenching, but it is an excellent way to improve people's awareness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Peaches...I know how you feel...it took me 3 tries to get through the whole thing. I hate to hear stories of children being hurt in any way, I always have and I just think that sometimes the abuse of children is not punished enough. My little girl is my blessing and for anyone to harm her or any child is just not acceptable, never will be. I hope someday the laws become more appropiate for the abuse against children. Someday soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Like Peaches I couldn't read the whole thing. I get too angry. Makes me want to hurt someone. Someone who needs hurting. Bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I remember somebody sent me this e-mail some time ago... I won´t read it again... I don´t understand some people, nor the world, nor plenty of things... I´ve never been beaten in my life, not even when I was a child, and just like Uncle Joe, it makes me want to hurt someone...

Sweet Jane 61 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I totally understand and I posted this so it could maybe be passed on. Just want people to be aware, and I know all of you are but so many people aren't which is so surprising. We have ribbons for so many causes in this world, this one is long overdue. I must sound like I am preaching but children are the innocents of our world and our future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Some people from my department in college took part in a workshop that taught them about child molestation and incest. We went for a presentation last year as well and I did learn a lot about the subject. This was a poem that they circulated on their internet group, so I saw it there and a lot ofother people did too nd it did have quite a profound effect on most.
