I am not sure what your life experience has been that you would write this, but personally I think it comes back to fathers. Mine set the bar pretty high...and while I personally have experienced this kind of abuse in my distant past, I made the decision to get away and I did. Looking back, my Dad set the bar pretty high and I knew better...I knew that this wasn't normal. Girls that grow up without their fathers, or with fathers who abuse them don't have have that measure. Think twice before you hit or abandon your daughter. Set the bar high and she will love you and appreciate you for showing her the way to live a decent life.
