The Blue Swing Patricia S Sherman

What happens to children of parental abuse? How do they cope with the betrayal from those who are supposed to protect them?In the Blue Swing - Parental Abuse, Choices And Living Without Anger, author Patricia S. Sherman reveals the misery and damage that occurs as a result of abusive behaviors taking place behind closed doors. She talks bravely of the insecurities, the doubts and the deeply rooted need within as she searched to find her place in the world and to love and be loved. She speaks of the strong connection to her sister, who assumed the role of her protector in many ways, nurturing her through those dark childhood times, where neither of them were able to truly understand why their home life was so different to their friends. She reveals much through the honesty of her poetry which lowers the veil on her experiences and talks candidly about the non-loving and dysfunctional relationships endured and how life became a roller-coaster of emotions and betrayal. In collaboration with her sister, they worked together to shape this into a book that engages from the opening chapter.

Although this book reflects a dark subject, it is filled with light and hope and there is a positive message within for all sufferers of abuse.
