I guess it depends, many people get abused all over the world, and not just physically either was physically and mentally abused by my father. i don't remember when the abuse started, seems like it was always there, and having an alcoholic mother didn't help either, I would always go to school with long jeans and long sleeves so no one could see what had happened to me, i guess that's another thing people who get abused have in common, they don't want anyone to know, because there afraid of rejection, having no one believe them and kids who have told there counselors would have children and families at there house as soon as they get home! most parents aren't stupid and if they really beat there children they would be expecting that's why the majority get away with it, knowing and if not,not caring,assuming there child or kids snitched there children would get beat again, unless they hang low for a while but, then it would always go back to the same routine father would have always a friendly talk with all the social workers who came to my house he would make them laugh,share a joke and call me sweet names and show them hes nice to me so that way it would throw them off track saying to them selves how can this nice man possibly beat his kids he obviously cares a lot for them and then they would leave the house my father peering out the window behind there backs not knowing they left me there with bottled hatred and feeling as if my life was a joke for them to laugh feeling like i was ridiculed, physical abuse often comes with mental abuse your made to believe in your mind that your not good enough because your constantly being called stupid and for me that no man would want me that my husband will beat the s*** out of me if i don't cook and clean for him, being called a b**** that was a mistake and many other hateful things too and people including kids who suddenly gets taken away from that feel that don't deserve it and they really do because no one deserves to be abused, it sticks with them and even years later its hard to talk about it cause they don't wanna remember it's as if there going trough the same pain all over again and if they talk about it they still have that mental image and still think they will get in trouble if they say anything it's still hard for them but they also need to talk about it in order to move on but, also when they are ready, it took me two years to speak up but, I'm 14 now living with my godparents and also I'm happier because all the pain i went through i know that my parents were using me to block there own pain but, even though they say i should, i still can never forgive them. The above answer is beautifully put and comes from the poster's own experiences. I was amazed at the fact this young poster knew that her parents were blocking their own pain because that is very true. In most cases one or both parents have come from an abusive background themselves and the chain goes on (thus, this young poster got the same treatment of being brought up through childhood with abuse as either one or both of her parents who were probably abused themselves.) To the poster, when you are a little older there will be time to forgive. I heard this quote once (I put it up on my fridge) .... "UNTIL YOU CAN FORGIVE THE PERSON THAT HURT YOU THEN THEY STILL CONTROL YOU." This means if we can't let the hurt go and forgive that person(s) (you don't have to be even friends will them, but just realize they are the ones that will have to pay for what they do in their lives). They knew they weren't doing the right thing and had an opportunity to go for counseling. As the years go by you will do very well and eventually in your own time frame it will become a dull memory (but never forgotten) and they will have to live with what they have done and you have the control to have a happy future. You WILL meet someone that loves and cares for you. I am also so happy your Godparents are raising you. My husband and I are Godparents to a lovely young girl (now 17) and we've been a big part of her life. Fortunately she has wonderful parents, but, she has always known if she is in trouble with no place to go my husband and I are always here for her no matter what. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us and God Bless you!

Can emotional abuse turn physical how long does it take before the abuse gets physical?

Emotional abuse can sometimes escalate to physical abuse, but not all cases of emotional abuse lead to physical violence. The timeline for when emotional abuse may turn physical varies and is difficult to predict. It depends on multiple factors such as the individuals involved, the severity of the emotional abuse, and the underlying dynamics of the relationship. If you are experiencing emotional abuse, it is important to reach out for help and support as early as possible.
