since becoming a mum..

[megcleary]

I cannot listen to stuff on the news about child abuse it did make me angry before I became a Mum when I heard about it but now I feel sick when I hear stories. Any one else have this?

Yup. Though once pre-kids I read an article in the paper that actually made me close the paper, shudder and try not to vomit and I mean sick was actually welling up in my stomach. I still cannot get that particular story out my head all these years later and I don't know how the social workers and police cope with exposure to such stuff.

I know, I assume they have debriefs etc I wonder is it the protective element for parents?
