Diaper Change #29 - Fleeing Abuse 2

A Note About Diaper Changes

A mother isn’t bothered by a messy diaper or a child covered in vomit. We clean them off, sometimes singing to them or tickling them along the way and then we send them off to play.

As such a mom, I’m treating each Vulgar Buzz Original (VBO) as a child with a dirty diaper. I’m not bothered much by its stench and refuse to ignore the child because it is smelly or in this case, uttering crass vulgarities under dire duress. By the way, VBOs are also known as WWMSU's (What Would Michelle Say in Utero?) to honor our often referenced and Darling Derry Girl.

Perhaps no other situation is as grave as when a woman feels trapped in an abusive relationship and finds herself pregnant from her abuser. I'll say it again, I don't really believe in capital punishment, but I'd be happy to make an exception for people who perpetrate such evil on a woman and her children. Hell can't burn hot enough for them.

In my personal trauma, I experienced the reality that there are so many good people and organizations out there that want to help a woman protect herself and her children from harm. The key of course is not to give up hope that such a place exists. My heart goes out to every woman in such an evil plight.

It was pretty easy to find the image used by The Vulgar Buzz and then copy the style with InDesign to make the more civil language version above. It isn't important which image helps a person make a better choice, it only matters that the message hits home before it is too late for the most vulnerable humans in the world.
