Vroue is sterk, hulle kanopstaan teen mishandelingLIEZL DAVIDS

“Almal het gesê jy bly teruggaanna hom toe en jy bly kla, maarniemand het verstaan hoekomnie,”

So vertel ’n vrou en ma wat deurhaarmanmishandel is ennouskui-ling vind in ’n plek van veiligheidvir vroue en kinders is.

Dié ma van een kind, wat ano-niemwil bly, vertel dat synooit kondink dat haar lewe met die liefdevan haar lewe so sou uitdraai nie.

“Ons was vir jare gelukkig saamen het later getrou en eers daarnahet die seerkry begin. Hy het begintik gebruik, maar vir my gesê dat ditnet een keer was en dat dit nie onshuwelik sou beïnvloed nie.”

Sy vertel dat hy aan die begin self vir sydwelmsbetaalhet,maar toehysywerkverloorhet moes sy vir hom geld gee en dit is toe datdie mishandeling begin het.

“Ek moes alles met my salaris koop en noggeld gee vir sy dwelms ook. En as daar nie geldwas nie, moes ek by mense gaan geld leen het.”

Sy vertel dat sy en haar kind eers geduriguitgeskel is, sy was finansieel misbruik en toéhet hy haar begin slaan.

“Net een keer het hy my in my gesig geslaan,maar verder net op my lyf. Jou liggaam raaklater gewoond daaraan. Jy berei jou voor virwat gaan kom.”

Sy het vir ’n tyd weggebreek van hom af,maar het besluit om weer te probeer en kortvoor lank het die mishandeling voortgegaan –so erg dat sy ’n saak by die polisie teen homgaan maak het. Sy het ná die hofsaak weer te-ruggegaan, maar het nou besluit dat sy genoeggehad het.

Oor hoekom sy teruggegaan het sê sy: “Ek

het teruggegaan sodat my kind skool toe kongaan. Ek het nooit uit liefde teruggegaan nie,meer uit vrees, want as ek nie saam met homwas nie, het hy ons gedurig met die dood ge-dreig.”

“Nou dat ons uit die situasie is, glimlag mykind weer. Hy speel weer en kan openlik metmy praat.

“Ek het geleer ’n mens het ’n keuse, moeniestil bly nie. As jy nie met mense wil praat nie,gaan op jou knieë en praat met God.”

Haar advies aan ander vroue is: “Maak jouhart sterk. As jy kinders het, dink aan jou kin-ders.Kinderskanhulselfblameerinso ’nsitua-sie. Maak ’n besluit, jy kan daar uit, want jyverdien beter.”

Sysêmetdiehulpvanmaatskaplike werkerskon sy ’n nuwe uitkyk op die lewe kry.

“Nou dat ek terug kyk is ek spyt dat ek nielankal uit die situasie gekom het nie, want ekweet nou ek verdien soveel beter, ek verdiengeluk.

“Almal verdien om gelukkig te wees.”

Om uit die strik van die skuld te komHallo Klara

Metvandagsehoëlewenskostesen talle ander versoekings, is eknou platsak.

Ekbesefdatekteveelskuldaan-gegaan het, maar die ander pro-bleem hiermee is dat omdat ek nienoumeermaandeliksmetmygeldkan uit kom nie, juis weens skuld,dan maak ek net nog skuld.

Hoe kom ek uit hierdie bosekringloop?

Mary

Hi MaryJa, jy is in ’n moeilike strik vas-

gevang. Maar moenie alleen voelnie. Daar is talle mense wat pre-sies in dieselfde bootjie as jy is -endiegoeienuusis,metdissiplineen uithouvermoë, kan jy hier uitkom.

So, wat kan jy daaromtrent doen?) Aanvaar jou situasie en kyk die probleem

indieoë.Moenieweghardloopvandie werklikheid nie.

) Deel jou situasie met naastes.Dithelpnieomineensaamheidenafsondering ’n oplossing te pro-beer vind nie.

) Beëindig alle winkelrekenin-ge en sny jou kredietkaart op.

) Krydanonmiddellikkundigeadvies en hulp. Selfs jou bank salvir jou kan raad gee. Daar sal goedgekykwordnajouinkomsteenjouskuld en jou adviseur behoort virjou rigting te gee oor hoe om jouskuld redelik af te betaal, terwyljy genoeg fondse het om maande-liks te oorleef.

Jy gaan vir ’n ruk lank sukkel,maar daar is lig aan die einde vandie tonnel.

Die groot geheim is om hiernanie weer in dieselfde strik te trap nie. Hopelikleer die meeste mense uit hul foute.

Wil jy ’n loodgieter word?As loodgieter jouberoep is, spesia-liseer jy in die installering en on-derhoud van waterwerke, riool-werke, dreine en ander pyplei-ding.

Die woord loodgieter dateer uitdie Romeinse Ryk en verwys nadie giet van stroke lood en loodpy-pe. Vandag word lood egter niemeer gebruik nie, omdat dit giftigis. Moderne pype word hoofsaak-lik van plastiek of koper vervaar-dig (albei roes nie).

Tipiese take wat ’n loodgieterverrig, sluit in: installering vankrane, pypeendreine; skoonmaakvan dreine en verstopte pype; op-spoor en herstel van lekkasies; in-stallering van warmwatersilin-ders (soos geisers).

Mense wat die beroep oorweeg,moet hardwerkend wees, nie deurvreemde reuke afgesit word nie,bereid wees om in vuil plekke inte kruip, en verstaan hoe dreine-ring en waterdruk werk.

’n Loodgieter herstelverstopte pype.

Wat doen ’n elektrisiën?Die elektrisiën-beroep behels dieaanlê enondersteuningvandie in-frastruktuur wat nodig is vir dievoorsiening van elektrisiteit.

Daar is twee soorte elektrisiëns:lae spanning- en hoogspanning-elektrisiëns.Van0–1 000voltwordas lae spanning geklassifiseer(huishoudelike toestelle, ligte enhuise se bedrading), terwyl 1 000–288 000 volt as hoogspanning ge-klassifiseer word (masjinerie infabrieke en kragdrade).

Die werk van ’n elektrisiën kangevaarlik wees en spesiale maat-reëls en deeglikheid word vereisom veilige werksomstandighedete verseker.

Die ure van elektrisiëns kan on-gereeld wees omdat onderhoud ennood-herstelwerk dikwels in dienag,oornawekeofopopenbareva-kansiedae gedoen word.

Die beroep word oorwegenddeur mans beoefen, hoewel vrouedit ook soms aanpak.

Hier installeer ’n elektri-siën ’n elektriese opwek-ker.
