Being violated by words

[Guest guest]

I can't figure out what irritates me so much about it and I can't

really put into words exactly what I think is being violated when my

nada insists on this kind of thing.

Have any of you got similar experiences? If so, what do you think

your rights are in dealing with this? I usually find that if I can

put this kind of thing into words, I have an easier time sticking up

for myself. I'd love to hear what you have to say. Trish

.......I have felt many many times that I am invisible; that I do not

exists. Nada denied denied denied, I was a non person in the house

(definitely not a home) and so did not have a right to have

feelings, much less say " no " in any fashion (such as declining food

or clothing I did not like - as a personal opinion). I was a non

person.

I remember feeling so uncomfortable and not knowing why. For

example, nada would buy ALL my clothes and the colors and styles

(for the most part, there were some nicer itesm) clashed with my

body type and were not flattering at all. Such a sublte cruel thing

to do to a child. Just some thoughts, mg
