Its it sad that we focus on telling children to speak up about child sexual abuse but then we have to sit back and realise that so many of the adults whom they unfortunately disclose too let them down by doing nothing.

i want to help in anyway i can,my number one purpose is to protect children from paedophiles,i have worked in Juvenile Justice and have heard hideous stories,the silence cannot go on,and paedophiles are getting sneakier because they know people are on to them,i have not been molested but feel i know your pain through their stories and yours,i cannot accept people stand by and let this happen,they in my book are just as guilty,i see your strength even after all you have been through,you are not alone

I agree totally. I went to my Sisters hen night and one of our old school friends was talking about Jimmy Saville and Rolf Harris and she was saying what a lot of rubbish it was - Quote "Didn't we all get felt up at some point?". I felt sick. I'm afraid I didn't respond as i felt so angry. And it wasn't the right time or place. Having lived with PTSD has opened my eyes. This person had no empathy at all.

When my younger sister was raped 42 years ago, she did go to the police. She was 16. The rapist was caught and convicted. To all the authorities that was that. Case closed and problem solved. Back then there was no thought of aftercare. Throughout the rest of her life, my sister battled with depression. Most of her problems were thought to be the result of the chemotherapy's affect on her brain tissue. Even in this age of medical breakthroughs, it's hard for doctors to find underlying causes. The glossed over the rape and only looked for chemical causes.

I am a male survivor of child abuse and in later years male rape. I had nowhere to go and nobody to listen to me.
