BEAUTY FOR ASHES

SEXUAL ABUSE Abuse occurs when one person inflicts physical, emotional, or psychological damage on another person, especially in a relationship where love is expected. 1. VERBAL ABUSE: May occur through name calling, belittling, harsh criticism, sarcasm, mockery, condemnation, or threatening. The damage is done by words and felt in the heart. 2. PHYSICAL ABUSE: May occur through excessive spanking, debilitating punishment, or hitting, pinching, etc, causing wounds and bruises. The damage is done by hands, feets, or other instruments and is felt in the body and in the heart. 3. EMOTIONAL ABUSE: May occur through inflicted guilt, rejection, playing on fears, abandoned, or playing the martryr. The damage is done by one person tweaking the emotions of guilt or fear in another person. This keeps the first person in control and the controlled person in continued emotional distress. 4. SEXUAL ABUSE: May occur through rape, incest, fondling, spectator sex, exposing oneself to others, introducing others to pornography or sexually explicit materials, verbally invading another's sexuality. Sometimes sexual abuse is accompanied by one or more of the other forms of abuse as well. This is especially likely when the abuser is an older person and the abused is a child. Verbal or emotional pressure or both are commonly used to enforce silence about the abuse. It's my conclusion to all my readers to teach all that are unreached with these messages to deliver this message to the community as many times as possible to protect especially women in marriage and young girls who are innocent on these abuses.
