Through the Looking Glass: A Love Story

"Through the Looking Glass: A Love Story" is a story of how parental abuse and family dysfunction sent a young woman spiraling into mental illness and a life of sexual exploitation. The "Looking Glass" travels with the young woman as she escapes her situation and finds a new life. This story documents her growth from an emotionally stunted child into a mature and loving young woman. Her story is similar to many young persons suffering familial abuse from uncaring or damaged parents. The young woman, Bobbi, hopes that her story will serve as inspiration to youth at the beginning of their journey, or as they struggle to overcome obstacles. She wants these youth to know they are lovable and deserve love, and that true love is always based on respect. Bobbi hopes that the youths as they grow and change will also find love in this world.
