Shit! This got me!!!! Same same and same!!!!! Been through it all myself. I haven't figured out 100% how to stick up for myself yet.
Really hitting home this episode. My father was abusive and when he left he almost beat my mother to death, but when she called the cops they claimed they couldn’t do anything because her injuries weren’t above the shoulders? And then refused to enforce the restraining order when she finally got one. 🙃
