Child abuse is often not seen, but it is real, with lifelong implications.

We rarely see a toxic home in action.  This film shows the reality of reactions from children living under the roof of an abusive home.  It is heart wrenching to watch, but it is critical for those who are not aware of the conditions of abuse to be vigilant, especially in our schools where children can receive help.  And for those of us who have experienced the trauma of a toxic home culture, reliving the experience is healing.  This film shows my worst fear of the consequences of inter generational PTSD created as a result of a parent who is suffering from the symptoms of PTSD.
