Awesome thread, Mohammad. As I’ve mentioned, I’m on the board of directors for our local domestic violence shelter. Alaska has insanely high rates of domestic violence and child abuse, the highest in the US. I posted a little about that in the Pheromones and Family thread.
Even in this day and age, there is still the urge for people to blame the victim. I don’t understand why some people think it’s okay to blame the victim.
I do a lot of volunteer work because I love doing it. I personally believe that doing volunteer work is the rent I have to pay for living on this earth. I have been blessed with so much, and volunteering for charity is one small way to give back.
