Is there a child in your life who might be going through hard things?
Sometimes they’re too scared to tell someone what’s going on.
When that’s the case, suggest they write it down.

This strategy worked for me with my parents.
I’d disclosed to them twice before, but they didn’t get what I was saying.😑
But when I wrote them a letter with specifics, they got it.

If you’d like to read my letter to my parents, I included it in my book, “Everyone Was Silent: A memoir.”
It’s available on Amazon. If you’d like a signed copy, go to the store on my website: dianetarantini.com.

Are you a parent, grandparent, or caregiver?
A doting aunt, uncle, or next door neighbor?
Perhaps you're school staff...
Or a music teacher or coach.

If you have a child in your life...
That you believe may be experiencing hard things...
Ask them this question.
And take action accordingly.

I am so grateful to my West Virginia Writers, Inc.

If you experienced child sexual abuse when you wer

If you experienced child sexual abuse when you were young...
At the hands of an adult who gained your trust in order to sexually harm you,
Do you think of yourself as a survivor?
Or maybe you use another word?

I alternate between "survivor" and "thriver."
Though recently I heard the word "victor," and I like it a lot.

Whatever language you use, I hope you've gotten the help you need to start your healing journey.

But the grownup who betrayed your trust and hurt you?
Chances are, they'll always be a pedophile.
Someone sexually attracted to children.
And trying to hide that fact from society.
