Brave strong man – Ian you passed your test in this life and they failed. May God continue to give you peace and healing.
2:23 I was listening to this in the background, and at this timestamp I got anxious all of a sudden….
Having studied abuse and the different ways it can impact a persons life I just need you all to know you here and you are fighting to over come it and you are all amazing for that!
My mum was abused as a child and I think that’s why she became the amazing mother she is – she didn’t want us to go through what she had
I wish I could hug everyone if you x
My kids mother is an abusive alcoholic and can be really nasty horrible to the kids and myself she emotional bully and physical too .
I'm so happy to see Ian turn out into a kind, insightful, good man and also go on to become a great husband and father as well as make a huge success of himself. Very inspiring.
The best thing about Wrighty is that all the mean things done to him made him treat his children (and stepchildren) in the exact opposite way. A real man.
I love that he’s survived and turned into a wonderful person whose given us so much joy.
So emotional watching Wrighty’s last appearance on MOTD last night & hearing how much the show meant to him because as I was watching I remembered this documentary when he said his disgusting stepdad used to make him face the wall on a Saturday night when he was so excited to watch it. Massive respect Wrighty, absolute living legend. The way you have lived your adult life after your terrible childhood is truly inspiring ❤
How can i find this full episode. It’d help my husband so much. I’ve watched it 🥺
I knew my spirit resonated with Ian for a reason
I am still living at home and experience emotional abuse on nearly a daily basis from my parents. It is mostly my mum and consists of name calling and isolation. I have also been physically hurt by her before on a number of occasions, I’ve been afraid to speak out about it until now.
You're my age Ian. I grew up the same way.
I ran away from my house at the age of 12 for one day and at the age of 14 for 2 years and 8 months because of constant mental and physical abuse by my mother. She never changed when I came back. I am 40 now, have a loving wife and a successful career but the past still haunts me the years between the age of 7 and 22. I completely cut off the connection with my mother as she have malignant narcisstic personality disorder.
I’m wondering if anyone can tell me if you grew up this way, do you have issues with being abrasive when you don’t mean to to others or do you feel fear of abandonment with your partner?
This only shows how far into the dark abyss of lost identity Ian has gone. His story is not balanced as he has never said anything about what he had done to get beaten by his mother Ian I suppose to believe he was well behaved Angel. I am not saying his step father never abused him but to throw his late mothers legacy under the bus lives he is willing to step on he neck of his own to be accepted. I noticed those who were willing to share their story are all white . That sadly didn’t wake him up . I grew with my grandparents and they only knew one way how to discipline us and it’s with the belt and it didn’t do me any harm. It made me have manners and respect to elders and the person I am today. I have a feeling Ian’s wife who have no idea of the dynamics of the back family has programmed Ian. It’s really sad that he is willing to do this to be accepted in the white world
74 and lived most of my life full of fear and full of regrets.
Twenty years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer. And one MAJOR thing I chose to give up was regret. Observe your reactions/ actions/ or lack of action (you majorly regret); from a distance, without JUDGING them. Forgive your younger, naive self, and learn from the experience. Can't change the past; but CAN change the future. To Grow, is so much more rewarding than fear or regret. -Rumi900 😘
73, few significant regrets, life changed fifteen years ago after I learned of a critical illness. My change was more in the nature of strengthening my boundaries .. learned that the more mindful we are, we begin to see that some things we regret may have been unavoidable. Enjoy life, friend! -TooLooze 😘
We hear through 100s of thousands of videos via online media that children are better off with bio – family home than in the government run care homes…… healing the PAST traumas . We hear that past violence has been changing over the last many years of abuse…. to a much better place for children and adults since ' the lock down film ' started, by sharing these kind of videos is actually are the best way….. understanding the pleasure and the pains . What an amazing Mr Wright for sharing ! Keeping away from NSPCC
When I was a very young child, I distinctly remember witnessing violent altercations between my parents. One particular Christmas , there was a severely intense moment, they were practically nose to nose and one of them was holding a kitchen knife… I am not sure whether it is just the psychological part of my brain protecting me, but I cannot remember to this day which of them was holding the knife !
The hard thing with anything like this can still be knowing whose genuine or not. Being thumped isn't the most imaginative or complex thing to think of, but it sounds completely awful. Nor is saying that your drunken parents were difficult, or that they said 'bad' things to you. Have you ever noticed that people who are often wrong can act blameless, even if they don't do such obviously bad things?
I'm a survivor of chronic physical abuse by my mother as a child. My father just drank and turned a blind eye. The road to recovery is long but worth it.
I was just like you….beaten almost to death.
This is reallly good, helps to change lives
I am a Liverpool fan. I just love Ian Wright his attitude and passion. Keep up your brilliant work Wrighty.
If the system executed domestic abusers we would have a much more beautiful society. Remove the nasty people.
My friends mum was like this she would beat him sometimes he was so traumatised he used wet his bed his was loving but the things she used say when she was angry really hurt him .
She say he cannot do anything right he is useless and he believed her .He told her about Ian Wright Mum she said he is making it up Just like her son .
Hold on in there Ian love you ❤️💯❤️
**）））*American virus/American flu
Coronavirus originated in the United States. Two virus leaks occurred at the U.S. Virus Laboratory in Frederick, Maryland, U.S. in 2019, and the United States virus infected the world.Americans are trying to hide the truth
The flu comes from the U.S., Covid-19 come from the United States.
I didn't realize how serious it was and I'm so sorry for all the children that have to go through such pain it's heartbreaking. But I bet when the kids make it big the parents are their best of friends. Children are not to blame for bad relationships, they are the innocent ones. God will surely punish those who have no heart, repent and ask for forgiveness.
Being hit was something you thought was just allowed, but I wish I’d phoned Childline on my dad. He punched me on one side of my face and I was near the wall, so my head battered off the wall, he knocked me out and when I woke up, I was vomiting from the pain. I couldn’t go to school as I had a black eye and jaw, and the worst headache. I didn’t cry when he died at 48, i wasn’t sad at all. I just thought ‘we’re free’.
"Knowing there are other make me feel lighter" exactly. Wish I could watch this tonight but can't stream in here where I am
And are absolutely right it still effect you.
Bless you Ian. Keep moving forwards and always remember who YOU are, not what those who hurt you said you were and caused temporary changes in you <3 . Thank you for sharing this and good luck with helping others.
Ian Wright the legend . I went through the domestic abuse and violence at the hands of yardie wannabes Carribbean family in st Paul's Bristol .I also lived with a white racist family in Bournemouth . Child abuse and racism was rife in the care system I went from top school boy footballer to drug addiction and fell in to prison .IV been the victim of child abuse domestic violence and IV also been the aggressor in domestic violence .I grew up in a racist foster care system abused and scared I didn't have a dad or mum due to there crack addiction .I'm now 38 and suffer with complex PTSD .
Children like Wright growing up in homes without their father are far more likely to be abused. Wright has 8 children by 5 mothers, leaving 6 wide open to the fate that he suffered. Some role model.
brave man
Dropped way down in my estimation with the Harry and Megan interview. Not asking any searching questions.
I experienced the same thing as a child and at 36 I’m still experiencing the impact of the constant fear of him killing my mom. Counseling is helping and I’m working to heal the little girl in me.
Ian sold out again…smh.
I am a child raised like this. I am 62 years old. I have never had one day of true happiness or contentment.
It would take to long to explain what I went through. My life was taken by a stepfather who hated me. My mother hated me as well. This pain never leaves.
Two hours before this video popped up on my feed I was thinking about how my childhood abuse has followed me & affected me through my entire adult life. And I thought how unfair. And I thought no one else understands me. Thank you everyone in this video. I can relate to every word and I see others are able to relate to my pain
When I was ten I was playing table tennis in the hall and the bat came out of my hand . That cost me six straps with my trousers and pants down . After receiving thee of the six I told my father I could not breathe as the pain was so intense and said he will have a cup of tea and then carry on with the three remaining, I love my father and mother and brothers so much but if I won the lottery I would demolish that house were I lived , I’m sixty six and my parents have past , they did wrong but I forgive them , I have to ❤️😢
I think the emotional abuse from a family member is the most damning to a child, at least it was for me. It was not my parents that were abusing me, but my maternal grandmother would hand out the emotional abuse and was a denier until her last breath. The lasting effects of the type of torture are long-lasting. I always fretted going to see my grandparent, even if I truly loved my grandfather!!
He's a bit of a living legend is our Ian. Highlights this AND all of the sickening abuse given to him on antisocial media, and still comes up trumps, on top of being a footballing icon. A top fella and no mistake
