Please help me get my daughters home where they belong by signing this petition. So far since I had started this petition gotten 131 out of 200. Am sick of being abused still by my family along with them mentally abusing my daughters with their lies about me that is not true. I am doing good for them with my life. Am in college along with my husband. We have a 3 bedroom 2 bath mobile home that is better safer cleaner, healthier environment than the home where I was abused in by my family, which is where the screwed up system has them at with the abusers of my family. Am breaking the cycle of the abuse in my screwed up family. My so called mother whom has never been a real mom to me, she was never there for me nor ever protect me from the abusers that she kept in her life and including herself being abused that she is so much in denial from admit it or even getting any help. Now she is not getting the help my daughters need by getting them into counseling. Shania has depression and is now on medication. She has it in her head that if she goes to Mental Health it will make or cause her to harm herself when it wont. Professional counselors are there to help. My daughters both need help but my mother refuses to get them help. She claims that she cares about them but she really does not. All she cares about it the money they bring in to the home. If she really and seriously care and love my daughters she sure the heck would not keep them from having a mother and daughter relationship with me. All because her parents took her first child away from her, so now she is repeating the pattern. Many whom that have been abused and through what I have been through would understand, know how am feeling. I sure the heck am not buying this place just for myself, my husband when its for my daughters. I have lost many friends since I had gotten married all due to my screwed up family. Since I had moved away from the area I used to live in. I will not allow others to use me like many of them did, that I have through that was real true friends. I have all my parental right and never once have I had them taken from me. My daughters are my only reason into being alive, growing stronger everyday, even though at times I just want to give up due to all the abuse that my family put me through. Am in college taking my Bachelors in Criminal Justice in the concentration of Human Service to be a counselor/social worker/advocate for those whom are going through similar situations like I have been all my life. When we have been through it it helps to let those others know and understand that they are not alone that there is help out there, instead of turning to others bad people or getting into drinking and doing drugs to help take the pain away when in reality the pain will never go away. When you have been a victim of abuse for so long you are scarred for life. I work from home due rather than an outside job. The work I do is helping others setup memberships with a wellness company that has safer products for the home, environmentally safer on the earth, no harsh chemicals.
