184 Entries for “neglect”

  1. I can neglect a pet. I can neglect a child. I can neglect myself – let myself “go” and stop taking care of myself, stop carving out “me” time, stop listening to the still small whispers in my heart and only follow the prevailing culture and what it tells me I should want, should do, should feel. And neglect the honesty within me.

  4. They neglected to tell me that I was adopted as a child. It was especially strange when the other children asked me why both my parents were white and I was black. I, myself was the one who was most confused.

  5. i consist of a formula
    baby milk and neglection.
    and my hair is long
    and my face is grey

    with cocoa-bean chalk, force power formula
    gun powder and blood and lonliness.
    i am lost and left in a deserted street
    cracking raindrops open with my burnt raw fingernails
    how many hammers lick the pavement in every footstep?

  7. found lost remembered forgotten i have been left ignored unloved removed from life and thought left to fold up into myself to dry wither crumble with the weight of the lightest breeze to blow upon the wind like the tiniest seeds of the smallest flowering pollen on wings of bees

  8. I attempt to neglect the desires, but they are so instinctual. Overpowering in a sense. It scares me to give in. I wish I could neglect how I feel. Ignore how my body reacts around her.

  9. Neglect, to me is an ugly word. It conjures up hungry, beaten, sad looking children in my mind. I know that there are other uses for the word, but that is the first image that comes to my mind, and, subsequently, breaks my heart. I hate to see anyone suffering from neglect, though, not just kids. There is too much neglect in this world.

  10. Neglect. My mom neglected me since I am middle child and only girl-she loves her sons more than anything. My teachers neglected me because I’m from a corrupted country and I never had money to pay for their attention. My environment neglected me since I am different, I am fighter and justice seeker.
    I’m 18 and I am going to Yale next year. I can’t help not to wonder would I be able to achieve that, if 90% of people in my life did not neglect me.

  12. I neglect myself. Many people would say that I neglect my work, my friends, my home, my car. By neglecting all of these things, it is myself I truly neglect. One should strive to help those around them and to keep their motivations true. By doing this, you are helping to achieve a life and environment that benefits you.

  13. WHen parents are not there for their kids it just shows how much they do not care for themselves and the future of our world. People like that should not be permited to have children

  15. I felt neglected when you left me
    cold andznaked
    wrapped in a blanket
    crying adn sweating

    but it was beautiful all the same
    as you kissed my mouth
    and my forehead
    with remorse
    for your neglect

  16. Yeah, he neglected me. I didn’t seem to be part of his plan, something he wanted to deal with. Who was more important? The ones in the other town, the ones who he saw everyday. But not me, I was just something to be ignored and yelled at when he came home.

  17. A lonely child without parents needs someone to take care of it. The feral dogs in town are her only hope. They seem to take to her anyway. They play around in the mud with her, chase each other and lick each other when they’re sad. Is it so wrong that society cannot accept her, she is happy after all.

  19. i neglect my life with only thinking about others. I dont think about myself how utterly wrong those words are for me. I am the most self centered person i know and it doesnt stop with me.

  20. neglect to make yourself the person they want to see. neglect to force the mirror to smile back. push yourself into a space of sorrow and disillusionment and distress, where the tears flow like breathing and hunger feels right. like an emptiness that belongs. belongs like you don’t. we’re not going to be okay, not going to make it out in time, and someday the sun’s gonna burn itself out.

  21. Puppies on the sidewalk. Children in rags. Dirty rooms. Broken windows. Burned out cars. Dolls in the gutter. Broken hearts.

  22. Everyday she yearns for it, a place to belong; a person to belong to. But everyday is the same, neglect from whoever, wherever, whenever. Day and night, in love and in hate, desire and death, all the same meaningless sensation without someone to revel in it with her.

  23. Its isnt me that is neglecting the world, it isnt me that is shutting my camera shutter to the world. I want all people to know what happens in this fucking world and start neglecting material goods and start giving value to the human being and things that matter.

  24. Komui has to remember never to neglect a hungry Allen. Doing that has many, many negative reactions. Like an immobile Allen, for one. And an upset Lenalee. And a more-angry-than-usual Kanda. But the worst has to be Lavi. Weird things happen when you upset Lavi, especially if they have to do with Kanda or Allen. Komui will always remember to make sure the kitchen is fully stocked. He doesn’t want any more ‘reminders’.

  25. Every day my grandpa always neglcts my sheepdog Lily. I donn’t know why He does that. Maybe he just doesn’t like dogs. Then whats the point of Lily being in the house. If he won’t take care of her he shouldn’t be able to see her.

    Every day when Lily wants food or water he justs ignores her. Even if she wants to go outside hr does the same thing. Ido not know whats up with him. But if he wants Lily to be in our house he better starts helping us to take care of her.

  29. child neglection? what do you think about that subject? heres what i think. I think that child neglection is wrong. if you bring a child into this world you have to love , care for, and feed them. child neglection can be something that makes children sad, cry, or make them think that something is wrong with THEM.

    when a child is neglected they sometimes feel like running away. they dont know where- but run they do. they could run away nearby or far, to places that they feel safe or to places where they think nobody will ever find them. they could go to a family members house or to a friend’s house. so do this for them. dont neglect your children. they may not be able to tend for themselfs. think about them first, before anything else.

  33. Have I been neglecting my elderly family members? I am so caught up in my own life and focused on myself, sometimes I forget to contact them. They are still alive, living lives sometimes filled with sadness and loneliness I am sure, and the only thing I do for them is send them a card every few weeks. This is mostly to relieve my own guilt for the neglect. Am I essentially a selfish person? Or is it okay to fucus so much on my career, relationship, and life?

  34. Sometimes I feel like I neglect those who probably care most about me. Not because I want to, but because i know they will always be there for me even when we don’t talk as often. My best friend and I have been best friends for 14 years but I onlt talk to her like once a month or so, but people I am barely friends with I contact like once a week it seems…

  38. you neglect to respect my space.
    you continue to try to get in touch with me.
    i told you it hurts.
    i told you i don’t want to be reminded of us, of anything.
    you neglect to care.
    you keep trying.
    please stop, and make it easier for me.
    isn’t that what you want for me?
    don’t you want me to be okay with all this?

  39. I had felt so negated even as a child, maybe that is why I had become the sort of parent that would do this to their child, I always promised I wouldn’t but now the cycle had started

  40. is an oxymora, at least where I come from. The woman next door is neglected but it does not get her down, at least according to her brother. Yet he has only called in to see her twice in three years.
