If you are a kid enduring an abusive situation, tell a teacher. Teachers at any level in the US are required by law to report any suspicions of abuse to the school board, who are in turn obliged to arrange with local law enforcement to investigate the situation. Please, don’t be afraid to tell anyone who will listen what’s going on. Abuse thrives on silence and ignorance.
This needs to be spread. No one deserves to be afraid in their own home.
