The Miseducation of Domestic Violence By Nicole Lofton



Hello Again! I have yet again something to share with you all today lol.  I finally finished my ebook/pdf "The Miseducation of Domestic Violence:Dispelling The Myths In Order To Promote The Truth


This is just a small PDF and this is something that has been on my heart. There are so many myths about domestic violence and I always try to dispel those myths. I addressed 10 of them that I feel are common or that I hear about the most. 

I pray that this blesses someone, please feel free to share it as well. If you would like to get in contact me, you can email me at nicole@faithfuldeedsfoundation.org

    Most victims find it hard to leave because of financial insecurity. Like in my case. I have put as much as I can aside, but with 4 kids and no room at the local shelter and no family close, it makes it impossible to put a down payment on rent or utilities. If you could help me or others like me get out of a bad situation that would be great. There are several on gofundme.org that need assistance in getting out. It’s so hard to get out.

    One year ago December I packed my three boys in my car and drove cross country from California to Florida not knowing were I was going or how I would get there. Just knowing were I was headed was going to be better than my present position. 3 months after having my C-section, I knew it was time. If I didn't leave now, I'd leave in a body bag.
    One year ago December, I wanted to be anywhere but on earth, I felt ugly, unattractive and little. I had lost control of the wheel to my life and I was speeding downhill. I was scared to live in my own 4 bedroom house I owned.
    One year ago December, I decided I deserved better. I decided to take control of my future. I woke up one morning and said fuck it. Its now or never and I ran. I ran and ran to the local police department. With my ex tailing me I ran, because my life depended in it.
    One year ago December, I changed my life forever for the better. I took a stance for myself. I realized I deserved better and became determined to make it so.
    Was it easy Hell No, (I cried the whole drive across the country)
    Was it worth it Hell Fucking Yes!
    Did I struggle: yes like hell,
    Was it worth it Hell Fucking Yes!
    To anyone reading this, if your are in an abusive relationship
    You deserve better, Don't be afraid, carefully plan your next move and take the first step to change! You can do it, I did, so I know you can!

    Unique post, good to know you address the other side of domestic violence. Every violence must heard and shared so that people can learned from it.

    This is definitely a problem made worse by social media. Everyone is quick to judge and just tell someone to get up and leave, but what happens when this person has no money, kids, and no other family around? The abuser knows the other is trapped and likes it that way. Telling someone to pack up and go doesn't fix anything.

Domestic Violence and Alcohol (Guest Post)

Hello Readers and Fellow Advocates, Today, I have another Guest Post. I am excited about this one and this is a topic that is dear to me but that I have not written about here.  Melissa actually takes a turn with this one because she is not talking about the batterers and alcoholism but rather how the person that is being abused uses alcoholism as a coping mechanism. This guest post comes from Mrs. Melissa Kluska. Here is a little about Melissa: Melissa currently writes for organizations such as St Jude Retreats, an alternative solution to traditional alcohol and drug rehab. As well as writing for St. Jude’s, Melissa also enjoys writing pieces that will help others on topics like health and relationships. 2 million. The amount of injuries associated with domestic violence each year, and 84% of these domestic violence victims are women .

When People Don't Believe You

Have you ever been going through something that you held in for a long time, but once you finally told somebody about it, they did not believe you? If you have experienced this, then you can relate to what a lot of people that have experienced domestic violence have gone through. Many times it is hard for a person that has experienced domestic violence to reach out to someone. Most times people won't believe them. The most common reason that people say they do not believe a person is because they did not speak out about it before hand. Here is a scenario: Let's say that there is a woman who is in a abusive relationship with her husband. Lets say that he emotionally, financially, and physically abuses her everyday. The woman has drifted off and does not associate with her family and friends as much as she use to because of the abuse. Her friends and family say that she is acting funny because she is married. They have no idea what she is going through and when she does br...
