Good night @Former-Member @greenpea @Mazarita

Thank you for your kind thoughts @greenpea

@Former-MemberI like hearing about father stories with their kids ... they can be simple ... but healing for me and therefore probably others.

Homelessness is always a tragedy. Glad you are getting it sorted though.

@Appleblossum Her father isn't in her life and by his actions does not want to be
I bent over backwards for that man
I had my business. I think i respected his own needs many times over before mine were ever met...
I basically fell pregnant and went through pregnancy alone. I left domestic violence when my ex partner gave my child alcohol & after numerous assault charges. My ex partner has warrants out for his arrests on several drink driving and assault charges with others including me so when the topic arises about fathers with their daughters it just makes me angry and upset especially when others don't know the full details let alone me or my story of survival!!!

Yes it is. I was in karratha. I may be somewhat heartless now because i have seen alot and been through alot but no way am i any where naive as what i was once.

When you have had your self worth, dignity and self respect gone out of the window and dealt with horrid memories and the damage and seen how everyone else has copped "my" own damage then people can judge me...

I hate myself for it everyday so no matter what anyone else says it can't be any worse than what i tell myself daily since the ordeal.

Yes i am glad we have found a place too

@Former-Member,been through a different struggle where I saw my life go in front of me etc,as well as struggling with anxiety and depression , unemployment etcwhere I isolated myself from the world due to keeping safe from judgements,gossips, comments.I too have lost my self worth,dignity,self respect etc ,and live with the trauma and impact of my life.Understand.

@Former-MemberI am so sorry I was befuddled in an airy fairy memory land about my dad (we both had to deal with homelessness when we were minors).

You have certainly had a torrid time. For some reason I thought you were male.  I hope I did not upset you too much remembering all that trauma.

I just wanted to give you a big heart hug for rescuing the bird with your daughter.

Yes.  The details matter.  Sexual and physical abuse matters.

Hope you can settle enough to sleep. Trying to calm down too,

@Former-Member - so glad you got yourself out of that situation. Hope you realise how important you are. It’s truly awful when you start believing what another person makes you feel like.

@Former-Member I feel like i am going to explode!
Yep all that too!. I am sorry you have had trauma.
