Outline
Message that features an image of a small child with an injured face along with a poem about a child murdered by an abusive father exhorts recipients to repost the image and poem to show that they are against child abuse.
Brief Analysis
The message is misleading. The pictured child was not a victim of child abuse. Her injuries were the result of a dog attack that took place in September 2002. And her name is Jade, not Chris. The poem itself was reportedly written by Misty Nicole Ramsey and first published back in 1996. Jade’s picture has been stolen and reused in the message without her parent’s consent. The unauthorised use of Jade’s image and the callous misrepresentation of her injuries is reprehensible and immoral. And, reposting this message will do nothing whatsoever to help prevent child abuse.
Example
Daddy… It hurts
This is A TRUE STORY AND IF YOU DONT PASS THIS ON; YOU DONT HAVE A SOUL!!! SO PLEASE DO READ IT ONLY ONCE 🙂 IT WONT TAKE MORE THEN 5 MIN Thanks !!
My name is Chris ,
I am three,
My eyes are swollen..
I cannot see.
I must be stupid,
I must be bad,
What else could have made,
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better,
I wish I werent ugly,
Then maybe my mommy,
Would still want to hug me.
I cant do a wrong,
I can speak at all,
Or else Im locked up,
All day long.
When Im awake,
Im all alone,
The house is dark,
My folks arent home.
When my mommy does come home,
Ill try and be nice,
So maybe Ill just get,
One whipping tonight.
I just heard a car,
My daddy is back,
From Charlies bar
I hear him curse,
My name is called ,
I press myself,
Against the wall.
I try to hide,
From his evil eyes,
Im so afraid now,
Im starting to cry.
He finds me weeping,
Calls me ugly words,
He says its my fault,
He suffers at work.
He slaps and hits me,
And yells at me more,
I finally get free,
And run to the door.
Hes already locked it,
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me,
Against the hard wall.
I fall to the floor,
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues,
With more bad words spoken.
Im sorry! I scream,
But its now much to late,
His face has been twisted,
Into a unimaginable shape.
The hurt and the pain,
Again and again,
O please God, have mercy!
O please let it end!
And he finally stops,
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless,
Sprawled on the floor.
My name is Chris ,
I am three,
Tonight my daddy,
Murdered me.
And you can help,
Sickens me to the soul,
If you read this,
And dont pass it on.
I pray for your forgiveness,
You would have to be,
One heartless person,
Not to be affected,
By this Poem.
And because you ARE affected,
Do something about it!
So all I ask you to do,
Is pass this on!
IF YOU ARE AGAINST CHILD ABUSE! Post this as Daddy … It hurts
If you do not send this to everyone you know Then you obviously dont care about child abuse.
At first I thought this was just a chain letter And I wasnt going to send it either, But now I realize that this is an important situation.
– At least 5 children each day from around the world; die from child abuse!!!!
This happens across the board, no matter how much money they have or their ethnicity ðŸ™
