Not After Glory... Only Results

Hannahs Faith is working hard to complete our website. Currently there are over 300 pages in different stages of development. We estimate that there will be over 2000 pages once the site is complete. We strive to bring you a clear, complete and comprehensive site. Hannahs Faith is intended to be a community (meaning the world) effort to fight abuse and the information contained here is intended to be used for that purpose only.

During the organization of the site, you may find that pages have been moved. If you are interested in something and suddenly it isn't where you left it, just drop me a note and I will be happy to redirect you. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but are confident that everyone will be pleased with the final outcome.

Our information is being placed on the site to USE. We have very little of our own work copyrighted for a reason; We are not after glory.....only results! Please keep in mind that our site does direct you to other sites at times and their info MAY be copyrighted.

Recently, we have added more pages of children that were fatally abused by an adult, added more topics to our forums (and encourage you to add some), began development on the Human Trafficking section and developed a Hannahs Faith Quick Help toolbar that can be downloaded to keep you in touch with us.

We encourage everyone to get involved. If you have information that fits into any of our categories and think it is important for people to know, please submit it to us. Criteria for inclusion on the website must fall within the context of help, prevention, education or awareness. We also encourage survivors of abuse and family/friends of fatally abused victims to submit their pictures and/or stories to us. We will keep your information confidential if requested. If you would like credit for your submission or a link to your site...that can be done also.

Hannahs Faith would like to thank everyone for their support and a special thanks goes out to all of our "cheerleaders" who constantly provide us with moral support and feedback to keep us on track.

ONE BAD APPLE…

ONE BAD APPLE…

The purpose of this Blog is the hope that people can meet on neutral ground – understand that relationship violence is not limited by gender, race, religion, economic status, relationship status, age, and/or culture.

Awareness comes not by accident, but by a higher calling to search for solutions.

Let’s talk…

LIFE with Hannahs Faith: The days are very long; the nights are very short.

PERSONAL: We have been so very blessed to be surrounded with family and friends we call “cheerleaders.” These individuals consistently encourage and inspire us to continue with Hannahs Faith.

ABUSE: Cruelty is a form of control – control of the physically weaker or less aggressive. This will be a notably short blog perhaps because this case is so poignant and defines control and emotional abuse (towards the Mother) so vividly, I feel there are few words I could add.

CHILD ABUSE; DOMESTIC ABUSE:

• Young, unmarried parents of a newborn… The scenario is simply the parents are with the newborn in a vehicle. The Mother states she was ending her relationship with the “Father.” The “Father” (allegedly) goes into a rage, the vehicle stops, the newborn baby is removed by the “Father” who ultimately beats the infant’s head into the hood of the car for several minutes and tosses his son into the ravine. The infant died.

If you are being abused, PLEASE find a safe escape You are too valuable – life is fragile. Call for help. There are telephone numbers and havens listed on http://www.hannahsfaith.com

We are activists in the fight against violence within the family. The defining traits of a family are diverse. Some examples, but not limited to, are the traditional (Father, Mother, Children), blended (Parent, Step-Parent, Children/Step-Children), liberal (Parent, Family Members Raising Children, Children), or homosexual (Adult Same Sex and/or Children), and friends-as-family.

The value of our children predetermines the value of our nation’s future.

As always…for the little ones,

Janet, Hannahs Faith

MORE THAN A FEELING…REALITY

The purpose of this Blog is the hope that people can meet on neutral ground – understand that relationship violence is not limited by gender, race, religion, economic status, relationship status, age, and/or culture.

Awareness comes not by accident, but by a higher calling to search for solutions.

Let’s talk…

When a child is the victim of family violence, children are not innocent until proven guilty; children are simply innocent without trial or prejudice. Adults, however, were to learn from their childhood experiences the value of character, morals, and self-control and draw from those traits as needed.

I am a family activist – regardless of family structure. The defining traits of a family are diverse. Some examples, but not including all, are the traditional (Father, Mother, Children), blended (Parent, Step-Parent, Children/Step-Children), liberal (Parent, Family Members Raising Children, Children), or Homosexual (Adult Same Sex and/or Children), and Friends as Family. I am not religious (I do not announce a denomination or their rules/regulations). I am spiritual (therefore, I will not judge you).

RELATIONSHIP ABUSE: Abuse towards adults, specifically in relationship settings has become commonplace. Unless the crime is especially heinous, the emphasis on the value of life seems somewhat unimportant. IT IS IMPORTANT! Violence between people that say they ‘care’ about the other has grown to epidemic proportions.

CHILD ABUSE: Death by child abuse is at alarming rates. The value of a child’s life has been overtaken by “adult” self-indulgence, lack of self-control, and the inability to see a child as precious, fragile, and unique. So often, the abuser is a partner (step-parent; partner; non-biological parent) and though, (for the most part, there are amazing “fill-in Moms & Dads” (myself being one), one must wonder if a portion of the problem is jealousy or resentment and the inability to see that child as separate from the biological parents. Abuse changes a person’s life…forever.

I will not enter into banter and conflict over specific cases, but will vaguely mention cases that I am currently working on and hope you will do the same. When I review cases of a child caught in a web of verbal, emotional, and physical abuse, I feel no sympathy whatsoever for the perpetrators. I ask myself over and over, “Where is the adult in this family?” “Who is the protector if the adults are the monsters?” “Who is the moral or character role model for these little ones?”

There are two cases now where two separate children were “allegedly” beaten to death for the following reasons:

· The child interrupted a Nintendo game

· The child consistently interrupted a television show

There is a case pending where a one month old was “allegedly” brutally raped by his “Father” and “Mother”.

The value of our children predetermines the value of our future.

As always…for the little ones,

Janet, Hannahs Faith
