This is true for me. I grew up in a home which was abusive, neglectful and
just down-right hostile on a daily basis. Sorscha is growing up in an
exactly opposite scenario. Growing up in that environment did not
desensitize me. In fact, because I experienced it I am able to make choices
every day based on knowledge that I have gained from that experience.
