Links

A lot of you have read my stories and by now are aware of what I write. Child abuse, domestic abuse, sex trafficking. The general evils of this world that most people turn a blind eye to. It's hard to look at, much harder to write I assure you. But it's as real as you and me and it needs to be brought into the light. One way that that happens is me writing it, and you reading it. But one more key part is you seeing the truth behind my fictitious take on the topic.
 
This post will be full of links to awareness stories, links to movie trailers, books, statistics and videos that are trying to help the victims just like I am. It's not easy to see but it's worth it if you will.


The ENDITMovement has several videos on the subject but one that effected people all around the USA was this one

A report of child abuse is made every ten seconds.
Almost five children die every day as a result of child abuse. More than three out of four are under the age of 4.
Child abuse occurs at every socioeconomic level, across ethnic and cultural lines, within all religions and at all levels of education.
It is estimated that between 60-85% of child fatalities due to maltreatment are not recorded as such on death certificates.
90% of child sexual abuse victims know the perpetrator in some way; 68% are abused by family members.
About 80% of 21-year-olds that were abused as children met criteria for at least one psychological disorder.
About 30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse their own children, continuing the cycle.
