It's always helpful to review our responses to sexual abuse in our lives. If you haven't had time to sit down and watch the documentary Allen v. Farrow on Netflix and HBO you can listen to these podcasts. The dialogue in these podcasts offers us education that helps us learn how to recognize signs of sexual abuse and inspires ways we can help ourselves and the people in our lives who are victims of sexual abuse. You get a deeper understanding of how sexual abuse operates in families. Please take some time to listen to these podcasts, they are easily available on Youtube. These podcasts are full of education for all of us to understand the signs of sexual abuse in our lives. Awareness and education of the sexual abuse of children are our responsibility as parents, brothers, sisters, friends, and extended family members, so we can be a part of the healing instead of enabling the problem. Sexual abuse lurks in the disempowerment of victims while cloaking the victim in confusion, fear, guilt, grief, shame, and secrecy. The power of awareness of each one who courageously faces these issues assists in the healing of this destructive patterning of psychological, emotional, and sexual abuse and supports the healing of victims and their relationships. Together we can heal. You can follow up on the podcast series Allen v. Farrow on Youtube.
