We also know that 90 percent of the time, victims know their abuser. Daniel Pearse is living proof of both these statistics. He and his brother were sent to live with a pedophile after their mother died. For nine years, Daniel suffered sexual, physical, emotional, mental, and verbal abuse at the hands of his tormentor. Like many abused children, Daniel then suffered in silence for decades as an adult. Now, he's committed to stopping the cycle of abuse that causes so much pain. Breaking the Cycle of Silence proposes age-appropriate sexual abuse training and education in schools. It teaches children what is appropriate, shows adults the signs of abuse to look for, and offers sources of support for victims. With such training and education, we can identify and stop abusers, preventing them from claiming victim after victim for years.

Book excerpt: For many families, it's the elephant in the room everyone chooses to ignore. It's the one thing no one talks about at the family reunion or the backyard barbecue. Like a cancer, it oftentimes lies dormant under the surface until it is triggered and simply can no longer be ignored-by the victim or the predator.Sexual abuse has been-and continues to be-a silent killer in our communities. While it may not kill someone physically, it has certainly killed years of joy and happiness, let alone one's peace. In a moment, it has killed the hopes and dreams of many whose lenses of life are now tainted forever. Oftentimes, because of the shame and the guilt, the hurt and the heartache, the voices of victims have been silenced for too many decades to count. In this candid literary masterpiece, eight brave women share their story from trauma to triumph over molestation and/or rape. This is where the silence stops. This is where we give volume to the voices of victims who couldn't muster up the words to share their story. This is their story. This is our story. And it's time to break the cycle of silence.
