Quote by James Hauenstein

“Before I quit my job, I overheard my Boss say some nasty stuff about trans. When I didn't show up for work the next day he called me and asked where I was. I said, "I'm right next to you." He said, "No you're not. I don't see you." So I replied, "That's because I'm a Transparent.”

“Sibling abuse is underreported. It’s common for it to go under the radar. Typically, in early childhood, sibling rivalry can start out with squabbles, disagreements, name-calling, and competition between brothers and sisters. The rivalry is reciprocal.

Sibling abuse is the most common, but least reported abuse in the family.

Up to 80% of youth experience some form of sibling maltreatment; yet it’s been called the forgotten abuse.”

“There are dozens, if not hundreds, of reasons to write about sibling abuse. The one that stands out the most is the startling facts. Simply stated, sibling abuse is at alarming rates. This type of abuse is underreported. One reason why it’s underreported is toxic shame, which is dumped onto the abuse victim.”
