A Harsh Reality

Too many children have had to grow without ever having a parent to know. Ran through the foster parent system,with no one ever asking them. And what occurs when they get some bad ones,beatings,isolation,sexual assaults done. Then growing up and living with what occured,their conscience telling them this is absurd. So they go through life being afraid and believing that those who hurt them must be obeyed. It truly is a sick circle they must live in,and how this affects others is truly a sin. So we must try to get them through this and most times it will be hit and miss. But someone must be there for them,to ask those crucial questions where and when. For if they never release that pain inside,they will always surely run and hide. So "PLEASE" dear LORD! Set there evil free,and when they've released their pain could we then work on me.
