Predators attract their pray. You will find them where their pray is, and they gain this access through trust every time.
It is most always someone you know, a family member, a relation...a parent. And it spreads out into the wider community. This is a bloody epidemic....spanning forever.
The damage not only destroys the child if not addressed, it ripples throughout the whole family....and into generations to come.
Predators cannot help themselves and every child in contact, is in danger. The will be groomed and assaulted again and again and again...right under your nose.
And if that doesn't worry you...living with what is let inside them will. The child learns they can only depend on themselves from a very very early age and then the negative behaviour begins. This does not just go away, it festers until there are more horrors on more horrors. Addiction, self harm, mental health issues, the inability for form healthy loving relationships. Some become predators themselves.
Others become shells....
I call it a stain, it is like you are marked and every predator out there of every kind can see you, knows how to get in. It feels like the abuse never ends.
Listen to your children....for it is here....Innocence is lost and hearts are broken. Never, ever to reach full potential...for it was and always will be....stolen.
