23.01.2022 One for my fellow director Carly

23.01.2022 I have finally been dragged into the 21st century! Looking forward to sharing experience and articles (when I work out how)I have finally been dragged into the 21st century! Looking forward to sharing experience and articles (when I work out how)

22.01.2022 Her name was Hannah and these are her children Laianah, Aaliyah and Trey. They were brutally murdered yesterday by a man I will not name, I will not mention whe...re he worked or what sport he played. He does not deserve any mention in this story at her. HER NAME WAS HANNAH AND THESE ARE HER CHILDREN. Every time we see a story in the media about a domestic violence incident we often seethe following statements appear, I always thought he was a good bloke. This was so out of the blue, They were such a lovely family’, He really loved her and the kids’ and finally WHY DIDN’T SHE LEAVE? One woman is killed every week in Australia by someone somebody she has been intimate with yet still we ask why didn’t she leave. Isn’t it time we change the story? Let’s start looking at the perpetrator's actions. It was the perpetrator that made the final choice. The perpetrator made the choice to cross the line. The perpetrator made the choice to become violent. The perpetrator made the choice to commit murder. He was not a nice bloke, he made the choice to murder his wife and his children. That is NOT an act of love, it is violent, horrific and a brutal end to a life cut short. Gendered violence is often how domestic violence starts. It is the red flags that we look for in a relationship. It is words, behaviors, mannerisms, and actions that we should not accept yet we see them happen all the time. It is not classified as a crime yet it has the power to make someone feel powerless and afraid. It has the power to turn someone into a victim. So why isn’t it a crime? It isn’t a crime to judge women on her looks, to ignore her views, to dismiss her issues as unimportant, to speak over the top of them all day long. It isn’t a crime to use gendered insults, to use violent language or gestures towards women/people, to undermine a person’s leadership and to take away a person’s freedom of choice. It is not a crime to tell your partner how to clean the house what to wear or what groceries they are allowed to buy. It is not a crime to convince your partner that they are worthless, useless or to gaslight or break their sense of what is real. It is not a crime to make a woman afraid to leave you alone with her children. It is not a crime to do any of these yet they are all red flags for domestic homicide and they are all forms of gendered violence. They are things that are occurring every minute of every day behind normal front doors in houses you would never expect. They are all experiences that will never make it into a police record and never make it into the public record.Can you imagine this happening to you every single day and night? To be so frightened yet at the same time know that you are powerless because that is the exact way the perpetrator wants you. You have been isolated from your friends and family, made to feel like you deserve this, that this is your fault that your actions or words caused this behavior. You feel like you have nowhere to go and no one will help you because no one has so far, so this must be your fault right. This continues to happen again and again and again. It continues to escalate until the line is crossed. The verbal and emotional assaults become a physical assault. You survive this attack. He says he loves you. He says I am sorry. He begs you not to leave him and if you stay he promises to never ever do that again. So why didn’t she leave? Well Hannah did leave and still she was not safe. This was NOT her fault. He was the one who promised to stop yet HE CHOSE TO ABUSE AGAIN. He choose to murder them in broad daylight. Domestic homicide is never an unexpected event for the victim. How many red flags did they see before it was too late? Why are we as a society still allowing this to happen? Social media is an easy place to see where it can all begin at such a young age. Cyber bullying is everywhere yet how many of us CHOOSE INACTION. We choose to not call people out; in doing this we are saying that this is acceptable. If gendered violence is acceptable on social media then it must be acceptable in real life, right? Can you imagine if people were to say out loud what they are willing to type as a keyboard warrior? What would that world look like? The year is 2020 and it is time for change. Let’s choose to help the survivors. Let’s choose to educate our children, our workmates, our neighbors and everyone we can. Let’s choose to stand up and take action and say no that this behavior is not acceptable. Let us choose to raise the red flag early. It is our responsibility to call this behavior out. You only get one red flag in a game of sport and you are removed from the field. Why are we continuing to let the perpetrators continue with this behavior? How many red flags are you going to choose to ignore? To Hannah I am sorry we were too late for you. I am sorry you could not escape the brutal violence that that monster put you through. I am sorry that your real story is not the front page of every newspaper around the world. May you rest in peace with your children in your arms forever Photo courtesy of Mumamia
