Replies to 'Abuse'

and I remember this from childhood, is to be told, "You KNOW what you did".  The anger and rage are coming down on your head and, for the life of you, you can't recall doing anything wrong.  You did exactly what you had been told to do.

Spent hours going over conversations and behavior in my head, trying to figure out why I, or my mother, was his target this time.  Trying to figure it out so I could apologize.  Trying to make it stop.  Still sends chills down my spine just thinking about it. 

Not all monsters live in the dark.
