I did this page for the Betrayal Challenge.. We need to be aware of how a child feels when abuse happens..Talk to your child but do not allow them think it is their fault.. Believe me it sometimes carries over into their adult lives.. I know it happened to me..

Thank you for making this page. When I saw the thumbnail of it, I didn't want to open it, but glad I did. It took a great deal of courage. A response to some of the other comments Molestation is almost always by a family member or extremely close family friend.Abuse by a stranger, sports coach, teacher someone that isn't implicitly trusted and well known by our parents is rare.

wow... this is such a harrowing story... i find it so hard to believe that other people can do this sort of thing to kids, well anyone really, it just makes me soooo angry! im very careful as to who my daughter is around, and she is never EVER left alone with anyone, only family. Youre braver than i am, for making this page and telling the world about it. i cant do it. it is too painful....

very personal and strong page! I too was abused as a child, at age 4, by a neighbour. It does affect me to this day, over 30 years later, in the way that I refuse to have my children with a babysitter that isn't family and I'm extra watchful around new people, almost obsessive. I am so sorry that you went through this, but glad you are sharing your feelings with others xxxxxxxx

You have survived a terrible experience. ANY kind of abuse is, in my view, a betrayal, it is a betrayal of trust.

oh christine, this is such a terrible experience to go through and you're right, the feeling of betrayal fits and is especially bad when it involves your own parents turning against you when they should be protecting you. how you've emerged from this is inspiring, thanks for sharing your story. the visual - that photo of yours as a child and your moving journal are perfect, 10+10!
