Cinderella Tear (A novel that exam the unspoken nature of abusive relationship in western culture)

Hi, do you know statistically over 48% of women in western culture been in physical or emotional abusive love stories. 

Cinderella Tears is a novel that try to illustrate this frequent, but unspoken reality within our modern western society. 

While completing a combine  in media and social science, in university, I was surprise to find the statistic that an obsession with fairy tale romance, has result in 48% of women in western society, been in physical or emotional abusive relationship. And actively choose to stay in those abusive relationship due to the obsession of the fairy tale romance nature of those relationship. According to research, this is because girls are too frequently been taught true love and true happiness for a women is fairy tale romance, since they are a child, with statement such as "Snow white and the Prince live happily ever after" but never justified why. In the study of propaganda it is call "response shaping process." which is to  a person to a particular point of view, prior to they having and understand towards the situation. It is especially effective towards children, because they have no understanding towards anything.  Philip C McGraw, argue that when a person has no or only has a limited understanding towards a situation, they don't have the necessary data to contradict the perspective they are been persuaded to believe in, thus, make them vulnerable to be persuaded to a distorted point of view. With 48% of women been in abusive relationship as a result, I believe this is a situation that the entire western world need to know about. 

I've also seen stuff like this happened to girls, in real life, it was like watching a  in slow motion. (and now you know why I say "If I ever have a daughter, the only bed time story I am telling her, is the Cuba missile crisis.") 

So, base on the papers published by the leading  within the field and real stories of girls that been in the situation. I wrote this novel, "Cinderella Tears", hoping to inform people about this frequent but unspoken of issue, within modern western society.
