“For years I was financially dependent on my husband and it was very difficult to decide on this step. Also, there is a factor of fear, shame and that of our ‘what will the people say.’ Thanks to all the wonderful women who work in a safe house, I am realized that it was time for me to start looking at myself and not think about what anyone else was going to say. because of my husband I had to stop working, today, by babysitting I earn as much as I need and I am satisfied. “

“I don’t know what to choose, but I know I’ll make a heavenly grateful person who helped me through the hardest of times. You provided me with a roof over my head, a warm meal and protection, but I can also help me get to know the legal procedures that have taken place thanks to them , today I will know my rights and I will certainly know better to decide for myself and my children. Safe house people have announced that beatings are not my fault, though I have often questioned myself as being guilty of this whole situation. “

“And today I wonder why I endured all this for so long, maybe because of the habit of having someone beside myself, maybe because of a younger daughter who is attached to him, I don’t even know myself and probably would still suffer, but after the last altercation and violence, my older daughter told me that I had to report it and if I didn’t, she would do it. It was then clear to me that I had to react. my previous life, I turned a new leaf and decided to be a completely different person. “
