There are stringent guidelines regarding child abuse, and even schools are mandated by the state to follow protocol. The ONLY way to change "societal conditioning" (read: ignorance) is by speaking out and effecting change. We have to make a difference for the children. We MUST.

I really related to this poem as I am a survivor of abuse by the hand of my adopted parents. This is deep real and heart felt and what alot of women face in the world.
