I was around 4, when my older cousin started molesting me.
I remember waking up to him, with his mouth on my privates. When I opened my eyes and he noticed I was awake, he told me not to tell anyone. In that moment, I had realized something precious was taken from me. All throughout my life from that point on, I began to struggle with finding my voice. Around age 11, I mustered the courage to tell my mother. She didn’t take what I said seriously and my cousin was still allowed around me, whether it was in church or my home.
I grew up feeling uncomfortable and unsafe. I merged into alcoholism and drugs at the age of 12. Now, I am married and a mother of three. I am also a psychology major, and children’s advocate. I found my voice through receiving YHWH into my life. I’ve written a children’s book and devotional, as well as traveled to Africa and lived in Asia. I took back my life. Speaking up, is my liberation and duty. I am an overcomer by faith, and the word of my testimony. Let us investigate when children feel uncomfortable. Let’s not be passive aggressive, when it comes to the safety of children!
