I assure you that she took worse beatings as a child. The thought of getting a beat down is never a deterrent for a person who regularly sustained them as a child. I am sure the store owners felt great for standing up for themselves and what they worked hard for. This is all really sad that we treat each other like this. Jails aren't even a deterrent for many who lost hope. These are people acting out the trauma from their childhoods. ALL of this comes down to one issue we have been working on and its- the traumatized children and stopping it for the whole of planet earth. Hurt people hurt people and many psychological traumas repressed in the subconscious will come out through one's adult life. She is still a child, recreating a pattern, hoping this time, someone will stop the abuse, hoping someone will tell her she is loved and safe, hoping someone will listen to what she really came in for, to be shown the respect she never received as a child. The abuse of all children must end.
