If you were a victim of child molestation and told your family about
it, yet your family is still close to, friends with, or acquainted with your molester then I would like to hear your story. I am writing a book on how this continually affects you and how you can make it right and I might want to include your story in my book. The reason I am writing this book is because I was molested by my father and my family chose the 'let's pretend it never happened' approach. I spent endless holidays, as an adult, alone because my family refused to stand up for what was right. It's strange because I know if the roles were reversed, and they had been molested, they would demand that he be hung from the nearest tree. But they tell me to 'just put it behind you', as if that were possible. I went through years of hurt and anger with my family before I learned how to make it right for me. Anyway, that's my story and my book (I believe) will help others deal with this very issue. Your story will help them know that they are not alone. Please take as many words as necessary to tell your story. Tell me how this persons continued presence in your life makes you feel, who in your family disregards your feelings by allowing the person to be around or by bringing them up in your presence, what steps you have taken to try to stop your family from doing this to you, was there a specific holiday or event where this persons presence affected you, etc. Do not include any details about being molested or anything like that, this is about your interaction with your family. Your story will be anonymous if you want it to be or if you don't you can include any portion of your or any name you wish. E-mail it to me (do not send it as an attachment as I will not open attachments). Write your story in the body of the e-mail. You can write it elsewhere and then copy and paste it into the body of the e-mail. Send it to . By sending me your story you are giving me permission to use it in my book. Yes, it is my goal to get this book published. However, if you can write your own story and get it published I urge you to do so. The more attention we bring to this issue the better. The child molesters and the people who befriend child molesters do not want you to tell your story because your silence justifies their actions. Imagine how the world would see them if their secret were exposed? If we keep silent, then they win. Raise your voice; make a difference. If you have any questions just e-mail me at the address above. Thank you. |
