When I was little (until age 13) my parents drank and fought almost every night. I would stay awake listening to them scared out of my wits, and to this day, I can't stand being around people who fight.
This isn't something that just happens with poor people, it's something that spreads throughout many income groups.
In my case, it was alcoholism that fueled this violence, as soon as my parents quit drinking, all of it stopped. I was 13 when that happened, but still have bad dreams about those awful nights to this day.
I do what I can to overcome the reprecussions of it, but I realise it's never going to leave me totally. It's like an old friend, who's not really all that friendly.

Tia I understand where you are coming from.
For years and years my sister and I put up with our parents fighting every night and from around 11 and 12 we would sit with our brother to hide him from the fights...
Breaking glass, throwing of plates, crystal you name it....
There are so many people who go through things like this and I've finally decided to do something about it...
I started a mainstream site, a site where women and men can share their stories, which I am still in the process of building but its up there and is growing each week.
www.sensual-woman.com
When this is to the stage that I can keep it flowing there will be a male one just like it and stories are already coming in for that one as well...
