Someone once asked...

“I live with a toxic abusive parent, my father. It's 20 years since I've been dealing with this. When I look at my mother, the main victim, I feel like I've lost everything thing in my life because I can't give her a peaceful life distant from her husband. He beats her over minor mistakes or sometimes there's no mistake at all. Curse her in front my 5 years old brother. And rant his problems with me, complains about my mother in front me. Can you imagine how helpless I feel when I've to act like I'm at his side because if I don't do that he won't calm down. We've no support with us. This world is cruel to women especially in India. I can't even run from my house. I want a life without that constant fear getting shouted on and being questioned every single time.”
