I don't have trouble stepping in when a child is being abused. If nothing else, I let the parent know that they need to get help. I have also said, "do you realize you are abusing your child". If a parent will abuse their child out in public I can't imagine what they do at home. It's not easy but I can't stay quiet. (I was an abused child, perhaps its easier for me. I know how important it is for someone to say something.)Judy Roneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05439992575221937268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797516698904650063.post-8916038411063089102011-04-14T11:45:11.293-07:002011-04-14T11:45:11.293-07:00Thanks Jinksy!
