Domestic Violence Blog - May I Have Some Peace!?!
Posted by Diane under: Great Blogs; Mommy Care; Safety .
Domestic violence is a topic I have not covered here, but with one in three women experiencing it at some point in their lives and about 12 children per 1,000 living in abusive situations, it’s of vital importance to get the help out to those who need it. That’s why today’s post is dedicated to passing on a link to my readers.
A dear friend of mine has started a new blog called “May I Have Some Peace!?!” She has only had it up and running for a short time. But I know her well. This blog will grow quickly. That’s because she herself is a survivor of domestic abuse, and she’s committed to reaching out a helping hand to those women who are afraid to go for help, and those who have gone for help but haven’t always found the information they urgently need.
So whether you know someone in an abusive situation, or you’re the one struggling to break free, please take the time to visit “May I Have Some Peace!?!” You may just find the answers you’ve been searching for…
One Comment so far...

I am profoundly grateful for your support. My heart yearns to be of some comfort to those suffering (often silently) within the grip of domestic violence. The first step is to admit that “yes, I am in crisis”. Uttering those words myself for the very first time helped to propel me forward in finding answers that are often so hidden in “red tape”…that it’s easy to just give up. Yet, the strength I needed came when I knew if I didn’t get out…I wouldn’t be here today to hopefully be of some help to those in the same situation in which I was trapped.
Kindest Regards,
Kathryn
