As child abandonment has been a topic of conversation recently on here and in the news I just wanted to give a bit of insight into the child's point of view so go ahead and ask me anything.

I'm Ok but I personally think my sister is well fucked up lol. She's raised her own kids very poorly and her kids have had some of their kids removed by SS. I think if SS had know how poorly she raised her children that they would have been removed but they didn't, so they weren't. Unsuitable men were in and out the house but thats another thread for another time.

I wanted to say to anyone on here who is struggling, please if you are going to abandon your child - please just do it at the nearest hospital where they will be safe.

This is such a lesson in the whole ‘they’re young and they won’t remember so it’s fine’ attitude you see on here sometimes. Adverse experiences can mess children up, they don’t have to actually be able to remember it.
