The early life of Shelby.
Shelby's father was described as an abusive father who systematically, over time, repeatedly told her that she was worthless and the only reason he hit her and called her names was that it was better learning it from him than coming from someone who didn't care about her.
It became obvious to Shelby that abuse was caring.
This message was internalized and became a catalyst for Shelby's future relationships.
