I Endured So Much Pain At The Hands Of My Uncle And Aunt

Ойын-сауық

Welcome back to Unfiltered Stories! Today, our guest Shawana Thrower shares her life story with us. Between the ages of 6 and 11, she endured significant pain at the hands of her uncle and aunt. Despite her parents discovering their actions, her uncle and aunt were still permitted to enter their house.
Now, she believes that her experience is one of the factors that have shaped her identity as she pursues her career as a life coach.

    What a sick & disgusting uncle and aunt. And the fact many women and men like this exist in a lot of families is even more scary. Grown adults protect serial abusers that are harming children. These abusers are so sick to the point they are calling children into the room one after another because they are still not satisfied with their abuse. Abusing children for decades. For these types of people, there is no reconciliation that can help them. Families need to start fully exposing these predators, disowning and shunning them from the family and getting them locked up for life. It is more honorable to out these sick predators in your family than to turn a blind eye out of shame. I wish stoning were still a thing. Some of these predators just need to be "put to sleep" for good there is no amount of forgiveness or rehabilitation that can help them.

    I don’t understand why some parents do nothing when they learn their child was molested. At minimum they should have kept you away from the perps and never left you unsupervised with them. They crushed your trust and support system and the abuse lowered your inhibitions. Then everyone you knew was molested too so you came to accept this was how people were supposed to act. I am so overwhelmed with joy that you came through the storm and rain and have bloomed and blessed others with your guidance love and grace. May good things continue to come your way.

    My mom knew there was this female neighbour whose her daughter was older to me and she took advantage over my body whenever we went to play in their house. Also my older sister who we went to play with knew about it but she never stopped me from going. I remember she used to ran away and leave me behind. My Mom didn't stop me from going to their house and I thought everyone is living like this. When one male from our cousins that my Mom adopted them knew the neighbour doing things on my body he also started to touch me and biting my private many times. He then started to teach my brother to do the same to me. My brother tried many attempts but at that time I knew it was bad and so I used to ran away from him wherever he tries to uproach me. Nobody had taught me this and that was bad but I heard at School girls talking about a boy and girl sleeping together and that was bad....So I used to ran away from him. After years Later it made me to be addicted with mastu......and I took long to overcome my addiction and I used to have bad intimacy dreams and having shortness of sleep insomnia thinking my cousin and my brother will attack me and so I shouldn't sleep. It haunted me for years. When I got married my husband helped me over come my trauma. I really thank God it wasn't easy but a long journey of healing💞

    I don't understand the sister committing suicide @47 years old, when was abused as a child. Not saying my❤ doesn't go out to this lady, it truly does.because her energy is different. She reminds me of a teacher. A favorite teacher of mine. However, many black females are just as evil as the criminal perpetrator guys. I guess it's their own insecurities & what they have been through. The old cliche is that hurt people hurt people. No, evil, jealous,insecure folks hurt or attempt hurt people. That's been true of many black females I've had an encounter with, since a child. You're as evil, crazy jealous, insecure as the criminal, perpetrator guys.💯💯👿🙃 Anything sparks jealousy in the majority of you. Another person's handbag a pair of shoes, a outfit of another, a hair style, someone being given a bit of praise for anything.💯💯👿 Many of are no better, as evil as the criminal, evil, perpetrator guys. Sometimes you're worse. So,for my heart to go out to the majority of you, you would have to repair it & give back to me.💯💯 Because, I have been treated worse by the majority of you than by anyone.💯💯😊

    It’s heartbreaking knowing family discard their own children, knowing they’re being abused. I realize in many cases it’s intergenerational. Sadly, many children as they start to grow up are constantly preyed upon by sexual predators. They also tend to marry early, have children too young, yet those relationships end up being abusive. I’m not surprised there is major mental health issues/diseases within family members who abuse I’m immensely thankful this lady/mom found help, and is continuing her healing journey.

My moral compass is so strong that folks know to keep it moving. It’s unfortunate that hers was compromised at such a young age. She wasn’t given the chance to begin life unscathed. I’ll pray for her continued strength. Thank you for sharing as we all learn from this and praying for and with you.

As a young adult I experienced trauma and I wrote and published a Memoir Titled, “A Jealous Person Will Kill You, Literally!” In this book I talk about moving from California to Atlanta, working in adult entertainment, getting married, now divorced, and what I experienced dealing with my now ex-in-laws. What I went through dealing with them is in the title of my book.

This is incredible because most people stay in the victim mindset and stay in that mentality staying mad at the world and letting it drag them through the mud vs using it as a strength.

    How I wish you were a therapist here in NY. I connected with your entire story. Especially with the being told constantly from as far back as I can possibly remember 2,3yrs old being told over and over again for no good reason that she never wanted me a "Girl" my mother did that. She actually still does as if it's some sort of joke! 😮 And unfortunately it's been very long and arduous plight trying to find a good therapist who I can truly open up to. Anyway I'm so glad that you were able to do something with your trauma and succeed in helping others as well. You're Amazing ❤

    Exactly !! Why on Earth even bother to go to church, if you don't respect God ? Attacking and abusing children is for one thing, disrespectful of God. Hatred and control of children is promoted in most churches. And yet they say that contraceptives are bad.

    I pray that you truly have a personal relationship with Christ. I also lived through so much sexual abuse and physical abuse from family members and family friends. The only saving Grace I have is that I am now serving the Lord and He has healed my heart and soul. We are at the mercy of whomever is around if there aren't real Christians helping and watching us. The enemy of our soul has a plan from our infancy But Greater is Jesus in Us! Than what the enemies plans on us!!!

    So sorry you have had to go through such a traumatic childhood. You are such a courageous beautiful lady, thanks for sharing your story. You have helped me and you are helping others to give us a voice. I always wonder why these sick people have the heart to carry out such heinous crimes on children? I never told my story until 3 years ago. As a child when you are threatened to be removed from the home and it would be your fault, why would you tell? I did not want to be removed from my home. I know I suffered with OCD which has got better over the years. As a child who was sexually abused, you grow up with a lack of boundaries, which is no fault of your own. Like you I was promiscuous. I remember Oprah Winfrey saying the same thing as a women herself who suffered childhood abuse. I am so sorry you lost your sister. My dad found my half sibling on top of me and I know he told my mum, nothing was said about it. I am sure he continued sexually abusing me. I pray continued peace, love, light and healing over your life❤🙏🏾

    We need to normalize telling our loved ones they should NOT have children and ITS OKAY. What's NOT OKAY, is saying/pretending that a baby/child will settle/calm him/her down. Children are NOT emotional support pets or treatment for mental/behavioral issues. If he/she does not love themselves it's impossible for them to love anyone else.

    People should not have kids if they are traumatized,and not be pressured into having them. That's right. For a lot of people, unfortunately they want to be ' one of the herd' and have children as proof of being sexually active and ' desirable' to their peer groups. Parents also undermine their children by not telling them how to avoid pregnancy. At least half of all pregnancies are unplanned. We have such a HIGH child abuse rate,compared to other Western countries.

    That's because people have been brainwashed into thinking that abuse is fine, because it's part of the culture. In Africa you see the same thing. But slowly, people are getting on You Tube to challenge that. And call out these proud abusers who use the title " father" and " mother"- as a green light to mistreat children from babyhood on up. The more people are willing to end child abuse the better !

    ​@@nappyscribe1987Christians,of all people should know better ! There really is an anti- child attitude in churches that's always been there. Pro- birth, but once you are born, it's like the babies are the enemy. No one asks why this is. Why do churches take the side of child abusers and victimized the survivors even more ! How twisted ! How rotten ! I heard that Whitney Houston was treated similarly. Many adults were molesting her too. Which is why she had the issues she did. American Christianity is so disgusting ! All this focus on money,power, looks. Materialism is the Gospel in this part of the world.

And this is my issue ,stuff like this really makes me want to turn against the church all the way around .because if you can believe in God, why is it that God allows these so-called people who speak his name to do such atrocities? Why does God allow this wide is a god strike these people down.

    Great question ! I ask myself that - why no input from God. But you know, when the Pilgrims and Puritans came to America,they brought this perversity with them. Christianity was hijacked by the Europeans,and I can't fathom why this was ever allowed ! I don't go to churches anymore. I don't trust them. Unless I leave the country, I won't bother with another church. I am done with megachurches, and America in particular. Founded on lies- slavery and genocide. You can't have a normal country founded on those two things, and most of it's freedom is gone by now anyway, thanks to Neoliberalism. Reagan, Bushes, Nixon, the Clintons. All of these insiders are Neoliberals,Trump too,of course.
