Raising Awareness

The purpose of this blog is to give anybody that has been sexually abused an outlet, for them to be able to tell their story while remaining anonymous. If you have a story that you need to get off of your chest, you can contact me and I will post your story on this blog so that others will know what you had to go through. I promise the only thing that everyone will know about is your story, and I promise I will not disclose anything else about you, but you will be referred to as my friend.

Anyone can be subjected to sexual abuto se, be it verbal, mental, physical, young, old, male or female.

I think the biggest problem with sexual abuse being so close to home, is that parents don't feel like anything bad can happen to their little one. Little do they know...

I think parents really need to educate their kids. There's a new book out now by Linda Garner called "Some Secrets Hurt" where the main character is a child, and has been sexually abused by someone close to the family. The book is for a parent to read to their child, to help prevent or stop these horrible things from happening.

I heard about her on the news and was so excited to see that she's strong enough to come forth with what happened in her past. From what I remember, her story was inspired by her actual past. When she was a little girl, she was sexually abused by one of her relatives, and being an adult now, she's gained enough strength to tell her secret.
If you want to check it out, it's somesecretshurt.com. I will hopefully be getting in touch with her soon so that I can set up an interview with her.

And what is up with that doctor up on the east coast? He was a pediatrician. The police investigated his office to find what.... camera and recording equipment... oh yeah and that pediatrician had over 100 hours of video of him fondling, kissing up on, touching, groping these little kids, as young as THREE MONTHS! How sick and disgusting is that? Lucky a little two year old girl told her parents that the doctor "kissed her funny!" Otherwise, this dirty old man would keep feeling up these CHILDREN! What is even more bothersome is that there were a couple of reported cases where children tried to come forth and say that this doctor touched them inappropriately, but they were dismissed because the doctor was just being "friendly." Where was child services in all of this??? Why wasn't he investigated before hand? And why didn't their parents listen to what their child was saying??? How many of these children underwent multiple abuses by this doctor because their parents kept unknowingly taking them back to be molested?
