What is it like to be beaten everyday or to know that your parents really love you but they sure don't show it?

This is a strange question,but I will answer it. My dad didn't love me to begin with he did care somewhat,but I never really felt love from him. He made me feel worthless and totally unwanted. I must say that the only time I was noticed by him was when he hit me or yelled at me. The bruses went away,but the words always echo in my mind to this day. I have learned though that his problem was not me it was his own sickness. I hope that I answered what you wanted to know. Thank you for writing me! Terri
