This is EXACTLY how the abuse happens. And the perpetrator will show everyone the reaction of the abuse, and never the abuse done that led to a reaction such as this. People don’t see the abuse behind closed doors doors, the belittling comments and the victim curled in a ball in tears while the perpetrator sits on the end of the bed with a grin on his face.

To raise funds and awareness for women experiencing violence. 💜

On Sept. 19, Mandy Dhillon will set out from Chilliwack around midnight and walk 100 kilometres to Vancouver in just 24 hours. Her route will take her through Abbotsford, Mission, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Coquitlam and Burnaby before reaching Vancouver.

Dhillon says the cause is deeply personal and hopes to raise $55,000 for SARA for Women, which supports women in the Fraser Valley. The journey will conclude Sept. 20 with a community walk in Vancouver, with VPD/Purple Light Nights helping plan the Vancouver portion.

Violence against women and girls is a human rights violation that has persisted for decades. It is pervasive, but not inevitable.

Each of us can do our part by speaking out and supporting survivors, helping to break the cycle of abuse and protect women and girls everywhere.

Stop believing his version of his exes, mama. They're not all crazy. They all just experienced him. He twisted them until they broke, then blamed them for breaking. The "psycho ex" narrative? That's his greatest hit. He tells you she was unhinged so you won't believe her if she tries to warn you. Wake up. His exes aren't the problem. His pattern is. And you're living it.

“Alsalem said mothers who report domestic violence, child abuse or sexual abuse are often undermined by the application of the discredited and harmful “parental alienation” theory, resulting in children being severed from their protective parent, and forced to maintain unsupervised contact with the alleged abusing parent.”

“The information I have received suggests mothers who seek to protect their children from violence, including sexual violence, are too often disbelieved and portrayed as alienating the children from their fathers, unstable or manipulative,” the expert said. “At the same time, serious allegations of abuse are minimised or ignored.”
