I recently had this shared by a friend, and think it does make sense. I don't know if it will catch on, but it is worth trying, and watching for. If someone shows their hand flat, folds in the thumb, and then wraps the thumb in the four fingers, they are saying they are suffering from abuse...please get help. I may have missed it early if it was already shared, but thought if it had not been, it should be.
 
Wish I'd known that years ago, used to work with lady who it turned out was abused by her husband, might have caught it and been able to help. And not felt guilty when I found that being casual friends contributed to it.
 
I had no idea.
 
Have you heard of secret word. It is used like this. I'm in trouble and can't talk, Just say the word. Your mom said to pick you up from school, Ask for the word. Anytime things are not right say the word or question some one you do not know before you get in a car. It was before cell phones but in todays world even more important. MF
 
Thanks I haas no idea such a thing existed. Abuse is a horrible part of our society....
 
Myself, if I have trouble getting along with someone, I just avoid them. Don't understand one person physically or emotionally hurting another. Particularly when it is your partner who optimally you're supposed to support and be the biggest cheerleader for.
