Default I found this on facebook.

This is A TRUE STORY AND IF YOU DON'T PASS THIS ON YOU DON'T
HAVE A SOUL!!!

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 weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy,
Would still want to hug me.

I can't do a wrong,
I can't speak at all,
Or else I'm locked up,
All day long.

When I'm awake,
I'm all alone,
The house is dark,
My folks aren't home.

When my mommy does come home,
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll just get,
One whipping tonight.

I just heard a car,
My daddy is back,
From Charlie's bar

I hear him curse,
My name is called ,
I press myself,
Against the wall.

I try to hide,
>From his evil eyes,
I'm so afraid now,
I'm 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.

He's 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.

'I'm sorry!', I scream,
But it's now much to late,
His face has been twisted,
Into a unimaginable sh ape.

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 don't 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 don't care about child abuse.

At first I thought this was just a chain letter
And I wasn't 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.
Please help.

I copied this directly, from top to bottom. The chainmail bit at the top isn't me.

Ugh. I hate chain messages. Thanks for bringing them here, not matter how depressing it is, I am not going to continue the chain.

>__>

I also have reason to believe this is just someone's made up poem about child abuse and not a true story, because there are things in there that;

1. No one would know some of these things except Chris and his parents, and he's dead apparently while his parents wouldn't put things like that out there because then they would go to jail. And they obviously don't feel guilty about killing him if he existed.
2. Chris wouldn't be able to tell anyone, or write it down because he's apparently 3. Three year olds don't usually leave the house or write.

Even if this is made up, the function that it is intended for is good. And I know people have been through this. Thousands have, and my heart goes out to them and I wish I could help every single one of them.

However, all this is is a chain message. And all you're doing is asking us to continue the chain. :|

as sad as this is I hate shit the tell me I'm a bad person if I don't do blah blah blah.

I could just as easily say if you don't give money to help kids with autism then you're a piece of shit, or if you don't give time to help wash oil off of sea turtles you're an asshole, or if you don't vote for this guy your going to hell and you hate your country.

But, seriously it's a sad message

Far from enhancing awareness of an important issue such as child abuse, it trivialises it and in no way does it assist in combating it. Chain messages are rubbish, pure and simple, and that is how I treat them. If someone posts or emails me a chain message it is deleted without a second thought and you know why? Because i have better things to do rather than wasting my time reading some poorly written poem some nobody wrote and claims to be true.

I'm so sorry, but this is all I read.

Stop the chain mail. No, not that chain mail, the stupid kind of chain mail.
