#childhoodsexualabuse
#ChildhoodSexualAbuse (CSA) often begins with trust, not threats. Grooming feeds off unmet emotional needs, making kids feel complicit, confused, and silenced. Survivors like #KellyPatterson expose how harm hides in plain sight.

I was 48 when I had my breakdown. 50 when I told my sister. 54 when I told my mum and other sister. So this makes me typical of #victims #survivors.

Although I don't think there should be anything typical about us. Yes to removing the #statuteoflimitaton for #ChildhoodSexualAbuse #CSA CSAM
A horrific truth: the average age at which a victim of child abuse discloses what happened to them is 52 years old.

And 1 in 3 never tells anyone.

Silence is not a choice; it’s a sign of trauma. We must build a system that protects children and holds abusers accountable.

A podcast host asked me where my safe space was when I was growing up.

“My bedroom.”

Then I remembered the time my dad forced me to tape all my F papers to my wall when I was in 5th grade...

In sports, the rules are clear. Everyone knows them. Everyone agrees to them. Referees enforce them. And if the rules are broken, there’s a consequence.

Recording this audiobook was an emotional journey. Voicing my experiences, both mine and my abusers, was cathartic yet draining.

Thanks to @elephantaudiobooks and @justinphelpsrecording for their invaluable support.

“This diplomatic statement was not only a legal warning. It was a rare public acknowledgement of Japanese men’s alleged entanglement in transnational child sex tourism, particularly in Southeast Asia.” #CSA #SexualAbuse #ChildhoodSexualAbuse
Japan’s warning wasn’t triggered by a government audit or diplomatic scandal. It came because a citizen saw concerning social media posts and decided to act.
A rare, direct warning from Japan signals a shift in the fight against child sex tourism in Asia
