Sorry about the violence in your home One_voice, I grew up with the same thing. There were times I though my mom was going to be killed. I got the belt more times than I can remember. The effects of this never go away. Now I am learning that you can go decades sort of functioning, but problems from childhood can crop up when you are in your 40's and now I am living that.
