Souls on the Other Side do not see abuse as we do here. We use human emotions; anger, sadness, guilt, etc. The Other Side is free from these. They see every lesson here as an ability to learn compassion and love. To be abused in any way to me states that this is a very advanced soul. Looking to learn or even teach lessons in love and compassion. Possibly helping a family break the chains of abuse. Maybe by being abused, the child grows up as an activist against such abuse. Possibly even making laws to protect others. We all have a purpose. Example : A Boy called It. Though David's abuse, he has lead the way for stricter laws and even awareness of this. People now report abuse if they suspect it. An awakening occurs through this. He taught so many through his abuse and his trials. He is a wonderful person and a lovely father. Breaking the chain of abuse.
