Download or read book How to Abolish Child Sexual Abuse written by Steve A. Mizera and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at law enforcement officials who have been arrested and convicted during 2012 of either possessing child pornography or sexually molesting children. It is written by an ex-sex offender in order to offer answers to who molests children, when and where, how and why. But the most important question answered is How is Child Sexual Abuse to be Abolished. From an early age we are taught to respect and trust police. Most of us do. But today we watch the evening news or read that another policeman has molested a child, or was caught with child pornography. We begin to question our reason to trust. How is the molestation or the sexual abuse of children to be anticipated and stopped? At the age of seventy-three I believe I have found answers to the questions: who molests children, where and when, and how and why? But most important I offer recommendations on what must be done to prevent child molestation. In contrast, I examine and explain why what is being done today is not working. Really good computer hackers eventually get caught and go to prison. Some then offer their experience to corporations and get paid well to prevent hacking. Those in favor of hiring hackers (and the hackers hoping to be hired) will argue that "it takes one to catch one." However, you don't see law enforcement agencies hiring former murderers to help them catch violent criminals. So It all comes down to a question of trust. I was physically and mentally abused as a child in an orphanage, and sexually abused in a second orphanage. I grew up to commit a similar despicable act for which I was convicted and spent time in the notorious Folsom State Prison in California. This book is part of my effort at redemption. I examine many of the news stories that shock those who hear or read that yet another trusted man with a badge has violated that trust and destroyed a child's life. In rehashing these news reports I am not anti-police, but I am anti-child sexual abuse. Stopping Sexual Predators before they strike should be the primary focus in the effort to combat child molestation. It is not. Society has determined to waste its resources dealing with predators after they cause damage to children. Although society is certainly justified in using precious resources to PUNISH predators after due process, the ex-sex offender registries are ineffective and counterproductive. They destroy more lives than they purport to save. Instead, society should consider legislating mandatory sexual abuse awareness as early as the first grade. Children need this protection. It should also consider registering adults who are responsible for the academic and spiritual education, and recreation of children instead of using the millions of dollars it spends registering and monitoring former predators whose recidivism rate is extremely low. Registration should detail the consequences for sexually abusing children. Current Sex Offender registration causes unwarranted harm to families of former offenders. It does not protect children from future harm. In addition, society should consider holding parents accountable when they fail to protect their children from predators. The focus of this book is to arm children, parents and others responsible for children by providing answers to the questions: Who is molesting kids and why? When and where are children molested? How does molestation take place? And most important, what should be done to prevent this moral epidemic? [email protected] - Christmas Valley Oregon, Steve A. Mizera

Book excerpt: The Stop Child Molestation Book has been called "groundbreaking," "hard-hitting," and "a must-read for every family in America." What makes this a break-through book is its plan of action to put an end to child molestation. Using new facts from their study of 16,000 people, Gene G. Abel, M.D.and Nora Harlow urge families to take three powerful steps to protect their children. "We want to stop child molestation in the United States before we die. Only a few years ago that goal seemed laughable. Now, the breakthroughs in testing, medicine, and therapies will stop the people who molest children. Child molestation — with its at least 39 million adult survivors and more than three million child victims — can end. The problem we face is getting the word out. Everything you need to know is in this book. We ask you to read it. We ask you to tell others. And, we ask you to become a hero and step forward to protect the children closest to you." -Gene G. Abel, M.D. and Nora Harlow

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the current survivor-affirming awareness around sexual violence, child sexual abuse, most notably when it’s a family member or friend, is still a very taboo topic. There are approximately 42 million child sexual abuse survivors in the U.S. and millions of bystanders who look the other way as the abuse occurs and cover for the harm-doers with no accountability. Documentary filmmaker and survivor of child sexual abuse and adult rape, Aishah Shahidah Simmons invites diasporic Black people to join her in transformative storytelling that envisions a world that ends child sexual abuse without relying on the criminal justice system. Love WITH Accountability features compelling writings by child sexual abuse survivors, advocates, and Simmons’s mother, who underscores the detrimental impact of parents/caregivers not believing their children when they disclose their sexual abuse. This collection explores disrupting the inhumane epidemic of child sexual abuse, humanely.

Download or read book The Politics of Child Sexual Abuse written by Nancy Whittier and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Politics of Child Sexual Abuse is the first study of activism against child sexual abuse, tracing its emergence in feminist anti-rape efforts, its development into mainstream self-help, and its entry into mass media and public policy. Nancy Whittier deftly charts the development of the movement's "therapeutic politics," demonstrating that activists viewed tactics for changing emotions and one's sense of self as necessary for widespread social change and combined them with efforts to change institutions and the state. A lucid and moving account, this book draws powerful lessons about the transformative potential of therapeutic politics, their connection to institutions, and the processes of incomplete social change that characterize American politics today.
