Thank you for helping me understand.

Hey I just wanted to say I really enjoyed reading your story. I'll be honest, this hits home and I wasn't expecting how relatable it would have been for me. I've shed a good amounting of years reading this and it let me open my eyes and kind of accept that this thing happens. I'm 16 and my parents moved to another state because its cheaper there for them and the rest of their kids and I'm finishing up school before I move too, but this...

This really hits home and it feels good to have someone relate to that? My mother would diminish any and every feeling I had, scold me for "not doing a job properly", and then say it was because on her childhood and how it was hard.

I don't blame her for it, but having to console her and her sob story while feeling like absolute shit just frustrates me because I couldn't anything about it except vent to my closest friends and wait for the next outburst.

And this was on top of looking after the rest of my younger siblings who were/are being neglected.

Thank you for creating this and sharing your story. This makes me feel validated. Really validated. Thank you.

And many wishes for a great future ahead of you xxx

hey, just wanted to say thanks for writing this story. as someone who didn't have, the best upbringing, its always nice to just hear of other peoples experiences. that your not alone, how you feel and what you went through is valid. especially when the abuse isn't physical. so thank you. thank you for this.

You did a great job in writing this!

Tomorrow i have an exam... but I was find your story...
Thanks for this, I love Voltron and this story caves in me, take mi childhood and I remember all...

Thanks for this words, I was really need "Take this out"
Really the worst, is the verval abuse, one that you do't have evidences, but yes the soul scars.

It was incredibly brave of you to write this story coming from such a personal place of pain and experience. Not only was it well written and the character used very accurate for the situation, but it must have taken a lot for you to relive all of that in the telling. I hope that your story helps others who are trapped in similar situations.

I just got into Voltron and read this and I want to say thank you for sharing your experiences in this form. I can't 'know' how hard it was for you to write and share this, but I'm grateful you did. Because yes, this happens - and the only way for people to realize, sometimes, is through fiction because that is how we can truly experience other people's lives.

So thank you for sharing and I am so happy to hear that you two are Out and doing better. Best wishes for your continued health and happiness.

You are so, so incredibly brave.
I hope there is peace in your life now.

Thank you for sharing this. It helps, and I hope it still helps you both too

Love the story. I didn’t read the author notes until the end, and I wish I had read it earlier. I can’t really sound sincere, but I do truly hope that things will get better for you, and that even though what happened, you mangaged to bring happiness to people!

Do you think you can write an epilogue? Where Pidge meets Matt again and they reunite?

With your title choice and how you describe the mothers actions, this is about borderline personality disorder? the mental illness border lining between bi-polar and narcissism? I know you have read this multiple times, but i'm sorry you went through that all. The fact that some will never understand is hard, words can hurt as much as a hit. This story has really reached me and i'm happy you are much better (as much better as you can be in such a small time) maybe one day i will make my escape too.

I... Don’t even know where to begin in explaining how much of an emotional roller coaster it was just reading this (underline reading) and I can’t even begin to imagine how living through it must have been (underline living through it). And even though I’m sure you’ve heard this over a thousand times already I still want to express how sorry I am that you, that anyone, has had/has to go through something like this.
I’ll be honest and say that I’d probably be most like Hunk in this situation; believing and supporting but not completely comprehending/understanding of everything that’s happened. I will say I’m definitely not ignorant like Lance is; I’ve read and watched enough stuff to know and to understand that yes this does indeed happen no matter how much we want to believe it doesn’t, but I know that I’ll never be able to fully understand the extent of the pain you’ve went through because I didn’t grow up going through what you did.
I’m very glad (not to mentioned relieved) that you were able to Escape and to get away. I’m also glad that your need to share this life experience caused you write this overall amazing story as it and your (absolutely beautiful and detailed) writing has helped me see and understand this kind of situation a whole lot more. And I’m sure that anyone who’s read this and has gone/is going through something even remotely like this won’t feel so alone and helpless and will know that, even though it might not feel like it, there is always hope for the future and something better.
And to anyone going through the reviews to see if they should read this story or not, I have only one thing to say: Read it. Trust me, it will be well worth your time.
Well that’s about really all I could think of that I really wanted to say, so once again I’m very glad that you wrote and posted this not just because it was a great read but also for all the other people who’ve gone through this or something similar and just really needed to read the story and experiences of someone who got out, of someone who survived and is still living life and slowly moving on.
So again, thank you and I hope you’re doing okay and living as happy a life as you can. :)

Thank you for writing this fic, it resonates with me, thank you

I think you did well to put this out there, in your own way. Keep being awesome and I wish you well. (I hope anything negative at the moment gets better, despite mine getting worse. But that’s not important! You’re amazing :) )
