Yesterday and today I read of two horrific stories of fathers killing their children. One shot his entire family (including himself) and another threw his young daughter off a bridge and drove away.
What on EARTH would possess a man to kill or even hurt an innocent child???
We can all draw assumptions about why, such as “he was in the midst of a custody dispute and didn’t want his ex to have the children, so that’s why he killed them”… but regardless of the reasons behind why a parent would kill a child, I can say with absolute certainty, that in all cases these people have a low level of self esteem.
If they had a high regard for their self worth, then they wouldn’t put themself into a situation where they could be locked away for life.
If they had high self esteem, they would face the challenges in their life head-on, knowing that they would come out at the other end in one piece.
Their view on life would be a positive one.
When I hear stories such as the stories I mentioned above, I am saddened to know that if only they had received the right help to boost their self esteem, then maybe this situation would not have happened.
If ever you’re in a relationship with someone who has violent tendencies, both verbal and physical, I cannot stress enough that your safety and that of your children must be of paramount importance.
Get help from a professional who has skills dealing with situations such as yours and protect yourself and your children in every way you can.
