They Never Told is about bridging the communication and trust gaps between youth and adults. What we are finding is that the actual rate of childhood sexual assault is much higher than what s reported. Why is that? What is keeping our children from telling a dark secret? Is it trust? Is it fear? Or is it much deeper than that? This book is aimed at making you think critically about your personal relationships with the youth and survivors in your life. This is a book for parents, teachers, grandparents, and young professionals.

When your innocence crumbles because of sexual trauma or regret, damage is inevitable—defeat isn't. Life took your innocence, but shame is snatching everything that remains. Maybe someone took your choice, or perhaps you regret the choices you made, but with dysfunctional sexual incidents on the rise, so are the numbers of women living with the shame incurred from these detrimental experiences increasing as well.

It will help young men understand that there is a point where pressuring behaviour becomes criminal.
