Love, Abused is a work of narrative nonfiction examining how a child's life becomes a record.
Drawing on lived experience and contemporaneous documentation, the book traces how harm is noted, categorised, and repeatedly deprioritised within systems designed to protect. Concern is logged. Risk is acknowledged. Responsibility is displaced.
This is not a memoir of recovery or resolution. It does not offer redemption or closure. Instead, it documents what was observed, what was recorded, and what was missed.
This book contains references to true childhood neglect, abuse, and systemic failure. It is not graphic but may be emotionally difficult for some readers.
