Resumen del Editor

It's difficult for most of us to envision somebody injuring a child. Child abuse and neglect are absolutely real, as unpleasant as they can be. In the United States, more than 600,000 children are abused or neglected each year. Physical and psychological integrity and protection from all types of violence are guaranteed to all persons under the age of 18. Nonetheless, we know that children and adolescents are subjected to violence in the home, at school, in legal and child protection systems, at work, and in the community for various social and cultural reasons.

As a result, children and adolescents are harmed in areas and locations that are supposed to provide them with safety, affection, developmental stimulation, refuge, and advocacy for their rights. One of the factors that makes them particularly vulnerable is their lack of autonomy as a result of their young age, as well as the high levels of emotional, economic, and social dependency they have on adults or institutions, making it difficult for them to stop the abuse, seek help, or report the situation.

We pay for children's exposure to violence in various ways, including physical and mental health care, child welfare, special education, juvenile and criminal justice, and productivity losses throughout their lives.

A must listen

I like nature sounds without the intrusion of music or man made noises and anything that sounds like white noise, such as continuous rain, is very soothing and lends one to sleep.

Easy to follow

An easy to follow book full of interesting and useful information for every parenting easy to follow book full of interesting and useful information for every parent

A must for every parent

Very useful book. In particular, the chapter dedicated to helping your child to identify and express their needs and feelings was very helpful to me. We parents often make the mistake of treating our little children as adults by forgetting that children have other ways of expressing themselves and therefore we need an appropriate approach.

Very triggering and eye opening

This was very difficult to listen to very triggering but very informative and helpful we must heal our abuse so our children don’t have to experience it

childhood abuse and neglect

This is a good short story to help understand. i definitely recommend it. though a lot of parts are sad, at least i think so. no child should go through abuse or neglect.

A book of true sacrifice and love

My gratitude goes out to the author of this book for her amazing sacrifice and strength to share the intimate details of the abuse Brittany endured as a child and the strength she gathered to survive and share this amazing story.
