Ruth’s Mission

Equal protection under the law is something that every human being is entitled to here in the United States. Unfortunately, our society fails the most vulnerable, the children and elderly. Ruth’s mission in writing her memoir is to highlight the consequences of an “insecure attachment” and subsequent developmental trauma caused by parental abuse and neglect beginning from birth. Until we address the epidemic level of child abuse that passes from one generation to the next, we will never solve our mental illness crisis in America which is the cause of poor quality of life and plummeting mortality rates.
