Rosa de Guero<br />
Survivor Of Maternal Abuse<br />
Rosa reported her mother for child cruelty to<br />
herself and her siblings. <strong>The</strong> trial took place<br />
last year.<br />
In court, Rosa's mother admitted she found<br />
soiled pants in washing and claimed that she<br />
accidently fell forward and underwear went<br />
into Rosa's brother's mouth<br />
Rosa's mother also admitted to slapping<br />
Rosa's brother, throwing a toy elephant and<br />
biting another another daughter and<br />
throwing water at her kids.<br />
She told the court that her husband's long<br />
absences and lack of involvement around the<br />
house left her 'alone', 'isolated' and<br />
depressed' 'I was out of control. I was<br />
completely on the verge of insanity,' she said.<br />
Having admitted to some of the abuse, she<br />
would later tell the court that<br />
Rosa's allegations were 'beyond commenting<br />
on and 'absolutely ridiculous and extreme.'<br />
Rosa's mother was found not guilty of five<br />
counts of child cruelty and three counts of<br />
assault occasioning actual bodily harm<br />
between 1979 and 1993.<br />
