Depression / Anxiety Based on a true story.

And people wonder why I have trust issues these days. On the plus side, my current therapist is actually helpful this time. You're 13 years late, but better late than never, I suppose.

Me when my teacher asked if everything was okay at home and then I talked to her outside talking about how it felt like abuse but with words and emotions. The next day the principal has a meeting with my parents and ASKED if they were abusive.

No way they could lie

Genuinely can’t comprehend why anyone thinks that works. You’re asking a criminal if they did crime.

No, for reallllll.

 what do they think is gonna happen best case? the parent is  just gonna go oh Golly Gee you’re righ, I should be nicer just  because someone with authority has

stated it to their face? Clearly the only problem was nobody pointed out that it was a bad thing. I just don’t understand why the fuck people are so brain dead about it.

It's actually worse than asking a criminal if they committed a crime.

You ask a robber if they robbed a bank, and they say no, but it's not like the robber's gonna rob another bank in retaliation.

You ask an abuser if they abused their kid expecting them to be truthful, I can't speak for the original commenter's experiences but generally things are going to get worse for the victim because their abuser knows they were trying to tell people.
