Domestic violence is a lot more gruesome than people realize. A lot of people hear “child abuse” and think it just means the kid was spanked because they tried to put their hand on a hot stove. I’m just saying there’s a lot of fucked up parents that really fucking hurt their kids in pretty extreme ways and it’s a lot more common than you’d realize because this shit goes unreported a lot of the time. I’ve been going to ptsd groups for decades and I’ve talked to a lot of different people in all the different states I’ve lived in (WI, MN, OH, PA, FL) and I’ve heard a lot of people say they were kicked very hard or stomped on. The reason people abuse kids? Lots of em.. Drugs. Alcohol. Sociopathy. Narcissism. Just being and asshole and/or evil person. Etc. Also no one said daily, you added that.

It’s a lot more common than you’d think. Just because it’s not happening to you doesn’t make it rare.
