I've often looked at my friends when we're together and thought that statistically one or more of them would be suffering. Once again it's being brought to the forefront of pop culture with that rapper beating his girlfriend.BPOTWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03571643840019096676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-65767718570374359972009-02-19T19:49:00.000-06:002009-02-19T19:49:00.000-06:00Glad that you're taking up this cause.

These were not your standard run of the mill college courses and I took one on battered women. It was enlightening and scary at the same time. The next time I visited home, a battered woman actually appeared on our doorstep. I don't remember all of the details, but I do remember that I talked to her for quite awhile and we got her a safe place. I never knew what happened to her, but I hope that she is safe and found the happiness that we all deserve.MonkeyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17052353317087292134noreply@blogger.com
