Watch: Makgotso M’s Mother On How She Survived An Abusive Relationship. Abusive relationships are definitely not a new thing. Our parents and grandparents have suffered almost the same plight but in silence. Its quite heartwarming that women of all ages and races are sharing their stories and saying enough is enough!
One woman who recently shared her story is Makgotso M’s mother. As a survivor of domestic violence she gave advice to women out there who find themselves in the same situation. She urged women to get out of an abusive relationship but do so in a smart way because they are dealing with monsters.
The talented actress’ mother was pregnant when she ran away from her abuser, and at that time Makgotso was only 3 years old. By the grace of God she managed to escape and didn’t let her financial situation stay with someone who could eventually murder her.
Sharing the story of her mother, Makgotso uploaded a video on her social media platforms and captioned it, “There’s so much pain in our world right now. One thing that is really getting to me is the senseless killings and all kinds of abuse that women and children face in South Africa. My mother is a domestic violence survivor and I wanted to sit with her and talk to her about it and how she got the courage to leave. I’m hoping this will inspire people in horrible situations to seek help and leave!“
