I've posted the same topic in the Readers' Corner discussion. My friend WMW suggested that I've posted the same topic in here. This is a story about a young girl named Lauren. She had suffered incomprehensible torture and abuse in the hands of her biological mother and stepfather in her early formative years. She was locked in a closet, and thus the title of this article/story, The Girl In The Closet.
She suffered six years of torture and hell before being rescued. Remarkably, she had graduated from a College and keeping positive on her outlook.
I hope you guys able to read about this young girl's story. It only has eight chapters, and share your views.

I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call the geek
A little girl who never smiles
'Cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels
To cry myself to sleep
I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
But is it too much to ask
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I'm the cripple on the corner
You've passed me on the street
And I wouldn't be out here beggin'
If I had enough to eat
And don't think I don't notice
That our eyes never meet
I lost my wife and little boy when
Someone crossed that yellow line
The day we laid them in the ground
Is the day I lost my mind
And right now I'm down to holdin'
This little cardboard sign, so
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey, aren't we all
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I cant believe that her favorite song is this
I need someone to hug I cant stop crying :'(
Sima, like I said in our small chat, I will still cry when ever I read that article. So, in a sense, I can't stop crying too. :-(
I'm sending you my hugs
My heartache :'(
this is more than disaster where is their heart ?
I even cant cry
You will cry when your anger subside. :'(
Noas...
I couldnt imagine the physical and mental torture that Kid had undergone, that too from her own mother's hand....Still cant believe whether a Mother can do such a thing...Really shame on her.... What her stepfather has done to her is atleast not new to us, as we have come across many devils like that......But, cant imagine a Mother doing like this.....Life sentence is not enough to that Lady, she should be tortured in the same way how she did to her own daughter, and i feel Lauren should be given the right to punish that demon....
But, why particularly she had tortured her second daughter alone, when the First one was living independently there itself.... Anyway, Nothing can justify this Cruel act of any Lady, especially being a Mother...
Bala, yes, why she chose Lauren to be the brunt of those tortures were still not not understandable, though she claimed she just never felt the love for Lauren. I think Lauren's sister felt guilty for not being able to help Lauren more, though she was a child herself at that time and was so afraid of her Mom.
I think that woman didn't deserve to be called 'Mother'. A mother should be able protect and love her child unconditionally. A mother will kill to protect her child, and not the other way round.
OMG :'(((
Even in her distressed state when she was rescued, Lauren, that little girl still can smile.
I think she can smile cuz she has not seen another situation better than that .
She was always in horrible situation and have not seen any human being .
But how can she learn to smile :(
Yes, this girl's capacity to smile even in her pain was truly remarkable.
