@@ivanfernandez5875 just tell somebody. your grandmother is probably a victim or damaged herself, by her parents. most people hurt youngsters without being conscious about it or realizing what they're doing. but suicide is never an option and shouldn't be. it's not worth it for anybody. you'll grow up and see things in a defferent way and you'll thank yourself for being brave enough to talk to somebody who could help fix or improve the case 😊
@@krisztianbudai9992 Very few abusers don't relaps after rehab. Abusers always say they're sorry, and that they will never do it again .... shortly before they "do it again". It is a CYCLE of abuse of everything (drugs, alcohol, people) ... and it tends to go around and around and around, over and over again. Abusive personalities are abusive personalities!
from ages eight - eleven i always thought i would never make it to my teenage years. now im thirteen and extremely confident, i was so broken and alone, and now im so happy
Its also worth noting that forgiveness isnt always the answer. In my personal experience theres a difference between forgiving and moving on. I can never forgive how my mother treated me as a child, but I was able to get away and move on from what happened. I cant change what happened, nor do I care to, I've healed, but that doesnt mean I forgave her. Just something to keep in mind. I was always told that forgiveness was the only way, but its important to know that its not.
Always treat your kids with love and respect you know how many kids in this world never had love some kids never had enough love so share your love with them too....
Thanks for the feedback. They were not my first choice for actors due to schedule issues. Filming at times was difficult due to weather conditions so we had to keep running inside to refresh our minds on the script. The acting is my new film Memories is much better so I recommend you check that out!
I really liked this. Most of the short films I've watched with this type of subject matter always ended dark with the abused one killing themselves. It's nice to see some with a happier ending.
Getting abused is hard to over come the trauma is always there sometimes people recover some don't I don't think I'll ever recover from the 16 years of abuse
Tru that’s what scares me. I’m 13 i don’t know when it started but it’s not physical abuse, it’s emotional and mental abuse. I have to wait until I’m 18 for it to ever stop. I’m scared it’s gonna stay with me forever. Even if so get new parents and amazing friends and a greate family it’s always gonna be with me. Is there any point to even be alive anymore😣. It’s never gonna stop😭😭
@@fanboy_artist3645 i just turned 19 and that trauma from all kinds of abuse is hard to get through, with so much conselling doesnt work personal for me but im not going to be hypocritical and say dont think like that because i do think about taking my own life but if you are having that abuse try and speak to soical services and tell them how you feel and you dont feel safe where you are, physical the scars will stay but mental and emotional is hard to overcome, your only 13 still young but is there anyone you can trust to tell them how you feel?
i’m surprised i’ve lasted this long at my home, damaged, in pain, suffering. i always tell myself it could be worse. an abusive alcoholic parent is not even close to bad compared to what other children deal with. i hope that any of you dealing with any problems get through them and live a long life.
This kind of shows that human never progress and it is so weird that we think pain is always the good punishment ( not only to others but also to ourselves)
I don’t think they showed that sometimes these people can be really lovely. Like my dad was so kind and perfect to me in front of others and to others that no one believed me when I tried to tell them. And whenever little me would ask him “why do you hurt me daddy?” He would always bullshit me into believing it didn’t happen: “I didn’t. It isn’t real, it’s all in your head. Why would you accuse me of doing something like that. I would never hurt you, I’m always gonna be here. I love you.” And I felt guilty for ever even asking. Then that became my coping mechanism, whenever I didn’t want something to be true I would tell myself it wasn’t real. And now 2years on after not seeing him I can’t remember what’s real and what’s not, good and bad. And I just feel so lost. I don’t think this represented that well. It was good though
An alright if not very engrossing short film at the horrors abused youths go through and how it can affect families. The Mom was a coward for not defending Chris from Barry. The story is however a resonant one and a message to all who are victims, feel totally ignored or that life is unfair to them. Chris was lucky he met Jess-everyone needs a helping hand. It is hard to forgive and change is not always easy- a lesson victims and abusers all can learn from. While there are people willing to help others, the first step always starts with the individual.
I'm a Chinese Canadian girl but I was verbally abused by my stepdad and not physically abused but he is Chinese just like me but I will never forgive him like never
My best friend used to be abused by his father until he called the police on them one day and the police didn’t bealive him because “silly kids just always joking around” as his dad said. My friend ran away that night and stayed at my house and finally opened up about the subject and my parents called the police and that was finally enough clarification for the police to arrest his dad and exspose him in court.
A difficult but important subject, undermined by the Director's inexperience. For instance, it was critical to establish credibility of abuse early, but the father's limp behaviour at his first appearance and the belt hitting sound effect fell flat, diminishing most of what followed.
@@codydixon8418 yes but it's rare. i'm canadian too, and that can happen in other countries too, not just where we live. realistically though, what 18-20 year old would submissively hold out his arms for a lashing? an adult man would tell that fucker where to go.
The acting is so good the boy acts emotionless as a self defense mechanism when his father is apologizing he doesn't even look at him ,he's given up. He shows less emotion because if you give less hope it won't hurt as much when you're let down
Overall good plot and storyline. Although some scenes are shaky, but delivery is superb! I like the opening - the song with the main actor lying on the bed to show how helpless the main actor really is. The ‘jumping off the roof’ scene was also quite good imo. The actors were willing to be in the rain and it signifies how sad that situation really was.
What's d solutions to get out of this.i am 17 i want to run away from them and want to start a new life with new people.Those parents are like emotional blackmailer one day they will treat you like a prince or princess and another day they will treat u like it's your fault that u even exist. What to do men!?🤦
i still remember my childhood and growing up under my father was a hell, i suffered abuse, beating, on many occasions i was badly injured and bleeding due to my father altercation, some how i stayed with my family until i finish my studies and left my home for a job in other city, till now i dont like my father and every conversation leads to altercation and i somehow survived the trauma and when i look back, its not easy journey, To all those suffer from toxic parents, be strong and have a hope!
I've been just we're this lad was I was hit by the buckle part of the belt every day for years by my step father but it just made me stronger and I treated my children so differently
I was treated like that, I was bullied alot at school, I was beaten and called names so I was fighting back. When I got home I was beaten again by my parents for not keeping my hands to myself. I was treated like a slave, punch bag, humiliation and starvation. I was a walking punch bag at school and at home. I suffered humiliation in front of my parents friends, saying that I was worthless, useless, thick waste of space. I have written a book about it and it is called in comfort of Mary by Bethany Ford its on amazon and its on RU-vid and you can read chapter one on RU-vid now. Tell me what you think x. I haven't spoken to my mother for thirty years now as I had to choose my kids over my mother. So I picked my kids over my mother as kids came first.
If you must know, to change one's mind, is to change one's soul. Not a soul can be changed without a mind who understands. Understanding one's mind does not mean violence, but reaching out for one's deep hidden heart. I literally don't know if that's been said before, but at least I worded it myself
You never ask a victim to forgive you. It's not about you, it's about the victim always and religion plays no part other than causing more pain. People think the victim needs to forgive, but they don't. That's not their responsibility. It's the offender who needs to do all the work.
That was handy for the Dad that the belt was just sitting on the basket waiting to be used. There was this strange pause between the Dad entering the bedroom and talking to his son. The conversation on the roof was so BAD
This is so powerful cuz I only see this videos about girls and even tho I'm not a guy I feel that there should be more representation about guy and boys being abused
Stuart Ashbourne-Martin Because they don't believe in the real Jesus, Stuart.. Religious, stupid people don't believe in the real Thing... It's very very sad.... The Creator, who made us really does care about us individually... Carnal man does not..
Wow this is so good and relatable As a kid/preteen my mom would be like your math teacher called and said so and so and she’d try to help me with math and my dad would sometimes everytime he did if I didn’t know the answer he’d grab me by the face and start screaming at me and stuff or slapping me and my mom worked for cps so it’s not like I could tell them and I tried to tell my friend and she said I was lying so did my sister and she saw it happening I got whooped too with a belt but that was an actual punishment He still yells if you don’t respond to him fast enough and still insults me daily. Atleast that dad has an excuse my dad doesn’t even drink he has a lot of health problems though and is in pain a lot so I guess he takes it out on me
Does anyone know any movie/ tv show/ short film/ book with character like jughead from RIVERDALE? I love the depressed jughead idk why I wish I could watch or read more beaten, depressed, family problems character like jughead.
the story was good, but some scenes were just too “empty”, i don’t know how ti explain it. Anyways, i can see there’s a lot of talent in here, just keep doing what you love and you will always improve!
Me and him have a connection but my mom hurts and abuses me and my dad doesn’t do nothing but on time my mom abused me again and my dad knew it was cold so my mom got scared of my dad she went outside and my dad lock the door on her
My father made me stand touching my toes in the middle of the street when I was 5 just because as a 5 yo I was crying for a chips packet in the market.
Jesus Christ please be with all these kids during these times. We know you are loving God Lord Jesus. We know you will always be by our side. And that you will never leave us or forsake us. WE LOVE YOU LORD!!! AMEN!!!!!!
Bonjour!Très bien ce film!C'est dans ce sens qu'il te faut continuer pour réussir!J'ai regardé les autres vidéos mais il manque le truc magique pour les faire "décoller"Celle çi est bonne et il faut faire dans cette voie là!!Je vais m'abonner a ta chaîne et bien sûr liker!TRADUCTION: Hello! Very good this movie! It is in this sense that you have to continue to succeed! I have watched the other videos but it lacks the magic trick to make them "take off" That it is good and must be done in this way there! I will subscribe to your channel and of course like
Lucky you....... I experienced far worst..... many many years ago, left home after 18 and NEVER speak to my father ever since, not even attend his funeral
I get that this was a happy ending but sadly parents like that don’t just turn around like that. Sometimes they do but most of the time it’s just how their wired
He deserves a better family a better life abusing a child isn't going to make the problem go away it's just going to get worse. His dad needs to be reported to the Fed's and I think I'm gonna report him.
9:10 Chris I don't expect you to forgive me but I am truly sorry So tender even though he is trying to apologize he admits he can accept it if his own son doesn't forgive him for his own bad treatment
You're a great actor and writer/director. I'm assuming you created this film? The abusive father didn't show any emotions though, good or evil, so I couldn't really connect to him. But the music, choreography and camera was brill. Well done
This is me when i was a kid... Not just a leather belt. My dad puched me kicked me like a soccer ball. He has a war shocked from vietnam war. I don't know! I want to die everyday when i was a kid. I always go to school with bruises. Teachers don't car because here in asia, teachers think you just fell from the tree.. this is me literally.. Whenever i heard a crying child i freaked out like i want to kill the father of that child because i always think the child's father hit the child... I hate hearing child's cry.. It makes my crazy like hell like i want to kill.
