EP15: Who TF Did I Raise?!! Parent Abuse Awareness

Summary

October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and In this episode I discuss the often-overlooked topic of parental abuse with my guest Alice Slaughter-Flowers who lost her sister Rosemary Pate to violence at the hands of her own son.

Join me as we explore the realities of parents living in fear of their own children, living under constant mental distress because of their children, being abused verbally and physcially and even killed by their own children.

We will discuss the cultural stigma surrounding this issue, the blame and judgement that mothers often face when trying to share their experiences, and the diverse factors that contribute to such dynamics.

The conversation highlights the need for awareness, support, and resources for parents facing abuse, emphasizing that this is a serious issue that transcends socioeconomic status and family structure.
