I apologize as I didn't know the extent of your circumstances. While it would be great if child welfare was a priority, I sadly know that in other parts of the world, this isn't so. Your safety and security are very important, and I'd hate for anything to be done to you out of revenge. I am not judging you in the least. I have been in public and have seen kids getting smacked, screamed at, etc. I have said nothing because I have a bad stress disorder of my own, and if the parent decided to take everything out on me, I could end up in an emotional PTSD episode that could last weeks, up to and including hospitalization. In a perfect world I'd be able to stand up for everyone, but right now my priority is to myself and my healing. Maybe it sounds selfish, but I have no choice but to be my only priority right now. Hugs.
