Common sense tells us that life is not always fair.  We get taught that from early childhood, because we can't always get what we want.  Giving children EVERYTHING is not a good thing, because they end up feeling entitled to too much.  But, for the most part, life is supposed to be good.  Even when we run into snags, we understand that this, too shall pass, and we will continue our mostly pretty good lives.  Sure, while having too little money is always a stresser, it could be worse.

For many abused children, life is hell.  For them, thy wonder why it has to be so bad...  Many of these kids are beaten, and with broken ribs, they have to hide with a tape up job from their abusers, school work that is unfinished and failing class, because the abusers refuse to help, and then beat them again for having bad grades...  Others are prey to sex abuse, which is very damaging.  Psychological and emotional abuse is almost as bad as sex abuse.  Abuse survivors are more likely than the rest of the general public to become addicted to drugs and/or alcohol.  These same survivors of abuse are also at risk for suicide, prostitution, and more.  The thinking is, if they are going to be used and abused for their bodies, they just as well get paid for it, and think that because they are "consenting" that they are healing.  The sad truth is, because these same people are getting dehumanized even further, thus sinking into new lows.

Because of this type of thinking and such, many current victims and survivors still in need of healing from the inside out, their wish upon the stars is, promise me magic.  I'm hoping to make a little bit of magic to promote stiffer punishing on those who abuse our children.  for those who abuse children, it would be music to my ears, if they pointed at my fellow child advocates and I, "Hey, you know you assholes almost broke my pussy finger!"  Well, be glad it's just a finger.  It is so wrong for people to treat children like they are just pesky mice on the farm.  Well, I'm the protector.

And here I am...  taking watch.
