12am:

abuse survivors don’t own their abusers a single thing. they don’t owe them a phone call, they don’t owe them a card, they don’t owe them a hug, or forgiveness, or any other thing. abuse survivors don’t have to invite abusive relatives to christmas. they don’t have to call someone who abused them for years just because it’s their abuser’s birthday. if you ever pressure a survivor into contacting their abuser, you absolutely suck. 

additionally: abuse survivors don’t owe anyone accused of abuse a single thing.
