Learning to live...
Greetings fellow readers, today I will talk to you about different topics about which I have been hearing these days in some audios from my phone in the networks.
Yesterday I heard the case of a woman who was kidnapped in a man's house from the age of 16 until adulthood.
The youth is rebellious and does not accept much advice from parents because their very youth makes them think that they are masters of the world and that they direct all situations.
One fine day the girl took some clothes and decided to travel but she did it alone and hitchhiking. A couple in a car stopped and she got into the car, after a few hours of conversation the driver told her that he would detour for a moment to get something and then they would get back on the road.
Of course this did not happen, when the man came to a dirt road he stopped, turned off the engine and the lady with the child got out of the car and started to run. The girl missed the gesture and immediately realized that the driver already had a knife on her and asking her to place her wrists in front and handcuffed her.
It was from there that she began a torment of a life that took her for more than 20 years. Harassment, continuous rapes, overcrowding and torture.
And she was lucky, other women had already gone through the same thing but he killed them.
The woman with the child was his partner, also a product of a kidnapping and this girl suffered from Stockholm syndrome, eventually so did this other girl who spent more than 20 years captive in a wooden box that the kidnapper placed under her bed so that she would not escape, until she was totally subdued.
Advice from parents or adults and family members can never be too much, as long as it is not detrimental to a person. Young people think their parents hate them when they place so many restrictions on them, what they don't know is that it is the only way they find to keep them out of danger.
Kidnappings of young people are happening more and more because of the arbitrary way young people take life with their parents.
A few days ago I heard of another young girl who, ignoring her parents' advice, decided to go on an adventure to another country with the man who was her boyfriend.
He convinced her that she would have a job there as a model because this girl is beautiful and she accepted his proposal and ignored her parents, who advised her not to leave just like that, without having the minimum conditions to make a trip in an adequate and convenient way for her age, situation and life.
Of course, the girl thought that her parents were cutting off her best life proposal and were only thinking about their own comfort. So she accepted the proposal and went to another country with her boyfriend, touring places in public transportation and hitchhiking.
They arrived at a place where she was supposed to be seen and put to work as a model. Days, weeks and some months passed until the love affair ended. Of course, the modeling appointment never came, for one reason or another it was always suspended, until the terrible day when the young man did not show up anymore and she was left alone. In the street, without money and without knowing anyone.
She was ashamed, but she had to be on the streets begging for money to get her ticket back to her country and to her parents.
It only took this traumatic experience of being away from home where she had to pay all her expenses, make all the bad behavior and bad answers to her parents, who always forgave her, for her to realize how privileged she was to have those parents.
She never called them because of the shame of what had happened to her. She assumed her responsibility and decided to get the money and return home to ask for forgiveness and accept whatever her parents imposed on her.
There are evil parents that we know, irresponsible adults who treat and mistreat their children very badly, but there are many other parents who try to teach their children and in the form of deprivation they want to teach them and the young people do not accept it.
This young woman was lucky to some extent because she came home. The girls with Stockholm syndrome also came home, traumatized but alive for a second chance.
But the girls who couldn't make it? And the many other cases that happen and are girls who go on to be prostituted and drugged for the nefarious purposes of mafias.
Young people, don't let yourselves be lured by dreams of grandeur. Study your personal situation, try to make efforts to get out of a life of low economic conditions, there is nothing more pleasing in life than the fruit of our efforts and accompanied by the love of our parents, family and friends.
Have a great day, thank you for reading and thank you to all my sponsors for their continued support.
This reminded me of a video that went viral about a girl narrating a spoken poem. In that poem, she mentioned the struggles of teens and the deprivation they get from parents. She said that they should be given more freedom, to explore the world, to go partying or travel. They should be able to learn more the world out there so they can grow. Of course a lot of teens were able to relate to the video but many are also alarmed especially parents for that could lead to bad consequences as such as the experiences you have related. There's the blame, the guilt, the shame.
