"Her story" across generations by Ana https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom How the cycle of abuse keeps repeating en-us 2017-06-08 07:33:19 UTC 2022-03-15 04:04:22 UTC hello@padlet.com Noora's story: 1970 amisra https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2085642023 Noora was married at the age of 13. Her husband was 42 year old. She was physically abused by her husband. She had two miscarriages due to the battering. She got help only when her 30 year old son stood up for the rights of her mother. Noora told her story recently to a doctor during a medical examination. ]]> 2022-03-09 08:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2085642023 2022 h00388613 https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2085660351 A girl in 11th grade, her mother is dead, and her father is not in the house most of the time; she doesn't have a phone & cannot go out of the house.
She has been sexually abused by her brother several times, and when she talked to her aunt, she reported it to the police, and the police response was, "maybe you were satisfied with it." 
Until this day, she is getting sexually abused by her brother.]]> 2022-03-09 08:57:44 UTC https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2085660351 Poem https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2085678966 Is it just because we're defenceless, 
or is it because we're young, 
that you always use violence against us 
Should hat be the way it's done? 

Why doesn't anyone do anything 
to help keep us alive? 
What will just a sorry bring? 
It won't spare the goodbyes. 

One day it will have to stop 
before it causes death 
before it causes more tears to drop 
before there's no one left. 

Can't you just help us 
and take the abuse away? 
'Cos just imagine life without us 
if you killed us yesterday. 

If you can hear our voices 
and if you can feel our sorrow 
we have the right to make choices 
we have the right to live tomorrow 

So come help us protect 
the children of the future 
and come help us reject 
the childrens' abuser.

Sultan is a doctor and all of his family’s generations were doctors. He has been forced to be doctor while it wasn’t of his interest. He have been also forced to marry his cousin Sara. He always repeated to himself that he wont force his sons and daughters to do things that they don’t want. And he decided that he will make them live a life that is better than his own.
After having children, he tried his best to achieve his promises and decisions, but sometimes he views the norms and cultural values as barriers to his decisions, but he still tried his best to overcome these obstacles.

There’s a bunch of bananas hanging from a string, with a ladder leading to the bananas. When the first monkey goes for the bananas, the researcher sprays all five monkeys with freezing water for five minutes. Some time later, when a second monkey inevitably tries to go for the bananas, the researcher once again sprays all five monkeys with the cold water for five minutes. The researcher then puts the hose away and never touches it again. But, when a third monkey tries to go for the bananas, the other four attack him to prevent him from climbing that ladder. They are afraid of the punishment that may come.

Then, the researcher replaces one of the monkeys with a new monkey who wasn’t part of the original experiment and was never sprayed with water. And, as soon as he touches the ladder to go for the bananas, the other four monkeys attack him to keep him from doing so.  If he tries again, they attack him again. Thus, the new monkey learns not to go after the bananas because he’ll get attacked if he does.

The researcher replaces a second monkey with another new monkey. When this monkey goes for the bananas, the other four attack him, including the new monkey who was never sprayed with water. The researcher then continues to replace all the monkeys one at a time, until all five of the original monkeys are removed from the cage. Each time the newcomer goes for the bananas, the others attack, even when they, as new monkeys, have never received punishment for going after the bananas. And thus, the new monkeys, who have never been sprayed with cold water, learn not to go after the temptation of the bananas.

The researchers hypothesize that, if they were to ask the monkeys why they don’t go for the bananas, they’d answer “because that’s the way it’s always been done”.

On the other hand, nowadays, many thoughts have changed and families are starting to accept marriage from foreigners and consider it as something normal. However, there are still some families that have stigma towards this topic.]]> 2022-03-15 04:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/amisra/ell17kcdxqom/wish/2095154230
