I’ve always known what the abandonment and abuse is? Though
haven’t enquired literally I have always laid at the edge of a thin line with
several abandoning procedures and came over several abuses which I felt am not
eligible for as I am just a normal child with hope and fantasies as far my own
little world. But the society isn’t the same as we determine. It has a hell of inequalities
for the children without the support of father and below the poverty line.
Being a kid I never had a second thought over the word
FATHER at all… All I know is my one and only lovable MOTHER, who cares, scolds,
beats, teaches and plays with me all through the day. I am not even sure of my
age when I had a big question over my mind which every one of my friends
started asking me “Hey where is your father?”… Whenever I hear of my friends
speaking of APPA I would speak of my Uncle (Mother’s younger brother), MAMA. I
have even thought that was the another name for their uncle or something which
am not sure of it.
But when they started asking this question I had the million
dollar question running over my mind. So I started asking to everyone in my
family where my father is… But they said different answers and finally my
mother said me “He is with GOD dear. Tell this to your friends”… I felt so
happy and proud about it as only my father is with God. But after I realized
that my father has expired and then after I learnt to accept the change and
started saying to everyone who inquired me as he expired.
My mother was so-called-iron-lady who bought me up with so
much trouble and she would buy me whatever I ask for but only after so many
times of asking and she used to say me “Look papu… We are not millionaires. So
mama can’t afford you to buy luxurious items. I would buy you anything you ask
for only if I find it necessary and you must accept that and remember we need
to save money for future and not to spend money unwontedly.”
I would hear it and I would probably understand her
situation once I am grown up… But there was some times when I started pestering
my mother a lot like some school functions, my birthday celebrations, school
trips and all. But at one point I did understand the life and I turned out to
be a good daughter. So that helped me in being a good daughter and a better
human at present.
But who cares it? I have always been into a kind of
abandonment among my father’s relatives. “That girl is such an unlucky soul.
She killed her father to take a birth. It’s better to stay away from that kid
and her mother.” was the usual phrase they would use and I haven’t seen them
for very long years. Even if they unexpectedly see me they try to hurt me and neglect
me and so were their children who looked me like an alien because of their parent’s
misapprehension.
And the spell of the word abuse itself drags me to a world
of anguish which I have undergone by each and every person I meet say my school
mates, teachers and even strangers. Abuse may be of physical, mental and even
sexually. And for a fact I have undergone all these three faced of hell in my
life. I was always abused physically for being a middle-class girl child who do
not offer her friends what they order for as they were from high-class, and to
the teachers with partial nature who only supported the so called
high-class-children and abusing the lower and middle class children as we do
not offer them eatables and snacks daily, a car ride morning and evening and
many other benefits obtained from them.
And from the disgusting neighbors who
always spoke badly about the father-less girl’s to be on a wrong path and which
is why I was mentally upset for so long years and finally I turned up to be
bold enough to face those dim-witted humans with quick bang which made them
stop abusing me unwontedly and made me feel better.
And coming for the sexual abuse, being a girl child the callous
men used to abuse with vulgar speeches, wicked looks and devastating behaviors
which had a prime reason that my father is not there for protecting me from
those stray dogs. But I proved them wrong as GOD has created me with enough of self-will
and ability to face the problems and handle such cold-blooded animals.
So here I stand before you with a determination to face my
own life single-handedly and I am now protected by one another human KK who is
acting as a morale support for the past 4 years and has decided to spend the
rest of his life with me. Guess I am a lucky child obviously as my father
wanted me to live this life more than him and make him proud and look after my
mother well forever till my life J
Why I say you all my story is that, I have the sole right to
speak of child abandonment and abusing which is what I always try hard to be evaded
from this world. Who else can speak better about this than me? But as we knew
well, there are lakhs and lakhs of children being abandoned each day in some
dustbins, ditches and orphanages which is mainly due to the reason of their
parents who are not interested to bring up a girl child, or an illegal
pregnancy result, or people falling below the poverty lines.
Being with a
single-parent itself made me suffer so much all through my life and just
imagine children without both the parents and how on earth would they accept
this and the cruel society which is keenly observing their each step forward to
make them fall down with hell of abusing towards them. I always have likeability
towards the orphans and bondage between the orphan kids. Sorry they are in fact
called as GODS CHILDREN. And I will work hard till I die to serve those lovely
kids and I would like to insist everyone out there to work over it to make a
change in their life.
And speaking of abuse I strongly recommend each and every
human (the real human being in this world) to fight for the child abuse, be it
physical, mental or sexual. All we need is to bring up a child as a child by
remembering them to be our futuristic men. I have been hearing off so many cruel
reports more widely in recent days regarding the child abuse like the parents
torturing their kids as they have some illegal relationship and the kid might
say it to public, the kids being molested by the teachers, students, neighbors,
strangers, and house maids and also I heard a man selling kids to foreign countries
and if a kid is not been bought by anyone he would probably kill that child and
eat the flesh which is one such vindictive act I could hear whole of my life.
Children these days are not safe even with their parents, and if such situation
continuous where on earth would they survive? The Indian law is very thin where
there are several loopholes for the criminals to get escaped. So if I am in a
position to rewrite the laws, I would make our country with punishments as they
give in Saudi Arabia and I strongly think only then such merciless acts over
the children might get reduced and atleast the children born after that would
live on a peaceful surrounding without any abusing from the evil human race.
Change is inevitable for a blissful start for children and we must make a change as early as possible as the children life are at stake.
