Seeking Justice for Children
Molly S. Michaels wasn’t an abuser, but she believes she knows how one is developed. In Seeking Justice for Children, she shares her story, telling how, as a victim, she and her three children became embroiled in an abusive relationship. This narrative chronicles how she advocated for her children against their abuser, his enablers, and a failed justice system. Offering insight into the cycle of abuse, Michaels discusses the details of her relationship describing the co-dependency, manipulation, pain, and heartache she suffered at the hands of her husband. Seeking Justice for Children seeks to help prevent teenagers from getting into an abusive relationship, to support anyone living through an abusive relationship, and to encourage anyone who is in an abusive relationship to free himself or herself.
