ALT Graphic reads: Pause and Listen. “You’re trying your best to protect your children. I used to put the kids to bed before I would have an argument with him because then in my head, the kids weren’t listening. I was protecting them, but they can still hear, they still know all that’s going on. Social care get involved and they say you’re doing it all wrong. You’ve done the wrong thing by getting abused.”
