Nobody’s Home

Jade is a little girl growing up in a small town of two thousand people. She doesn’t know any better, but to take the abuse her mother has to dole out. Her father doesn’t acknowledge her or try to save her, although he knows what is going on. This story is about how a little girl gets through her childhood not knowing where to turn or where to run. Everywhere she looks and thinks to go for help, she finds that her mother has already painted her as an uncontrollable child. When Jade looks for help, she receives blank stares back as if nobody’s home. She finds the strength to survive it all only to start out her adulthood unsure of what the future is holding for her. Nobody’s Home was written to inspire others who are in the same situation or know someone who needs help that is in an abusive household.
