"words will never hurt me" is wrong and very untrue
sherri probus
I just had to jump in with an experience from my
childhood. I was diagnosed with Diabetes when I was
3 years old. My Grandmother told me as a child that
I could not have children. For 12 years I heard this
on a daily basis. At the tender age of 16, I became
pregnant with my first child.
She never meant any harm to me. But after hearing
those words over and over again I believed them on
a subconscience level. So when I had sex at 15 I did
not use any protection because I thought that "I could
not have children" because I was told so.
Now at the age of 33 I think it is kind of funny.
But so terribly sad. I love both of my children
very much but I was to young at 16 to understand
how much responsibility comes with a child.
Just my 2 cents.
