A Young Girl Looks Up At Her Father, Tears Streaming Down Her Face. Daddy Why Don T You Love Me?: A Father S Blessing To A Son Healing The Wounds Of The Absent And Abusive Father

As a little girl, I always longed for my father's love and approval. But no matter how hard I tried to please him, it never seemed to be enough. His words and actions always left me feeling worthless and unlovable.

"You're just like your mother," he would say, his voice dripping with contempt. "A disappointment."

His criticism cut me like a knife. I desperately wanted to be the perfect daughter, but I never could live up to his impossible standards.

As I grew older, the emotional abuse only got worse. My father would belittle me in front of my friends, call me names, and even threaten to hurt me. I lived in constant fear, never knowing what to expect from him.

One day, when I was 16 years old, I finally couldn't take it anymore. I ran away from home and never looked back.

For years, I struggled to come to terms with my childhood trauma. I felt like I was damaged beyond repair. I couldn't trust anyone, and I had no self-worth.

But I refused to give up. I entered therapy, and I slowly began to heal. I learned to love and accept myself, and I found the strength to forgive my father.

My journey of healing was long and difficult, but it was worth it. I am now a survivor of child abuse, and I am proud of the woman I have become.

My story is not unique. Millions of children around the world suffer from emotional abuse at the hands of their parents. It is a hidden epidemic that destroys lives.

That's why I wrote this book. I want to share my story to help others who are struggling with the aftermath of child abuse. I want them to know that they are not alone, and that there is hope for healing.

If you are suffering from the effects of child abuse, I urge you to seek help. There are many resources available, and you do not have to suffer in silence.

You deserve to be loved and accepted, just as you are.
