National Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Month: My molestation story |
|

|
|
Earlier today I wrote a post about my near-rape experience, as a youth. I have another post to write now; this one is going to be far more emotionally draining. I'm mustering up my nerve, though, and will fight through the tears to get this story told.

The trouble with childcare reports (commentary) |
|
|
|
|
This morning, after dropping our kids to the sitter, my husband and I headed home and chatted about the sad looks on their little faces. Our sitter usually comes to our home Monday through Friday. The kids love that. They can run upstairs to hug us or get a quick kiss which they generally do every hour or so. If they head outside to play my daughter might yell: "Goodbye my parents!" or they come to snuggle us before running outdoors.
