Mandatory Reading

If you are a human being, you have been in a relationship with another human being at some point in your life. Indeed, you are highly likely to have a relationship with another human being in the future.

You know people who are also human. Some of them are men; some of them are women. They also have relationships with other human beings.

And some of those relationships have something horribly wrong in them.

And that is why I am asking you to read this item on BlogHer entitled “Are you in an abusive relationship? How domestic violence touches us all.” Please, read it with an open mind, look at some of the links, and if you see anything that raises red flags in your life or the life of someone you know, read some more so you will know what to do.

That is all.
