Seven-year-old little girls love their daddy. Kathy was no exception, so when her daddy started paying "special" attention to her, she felt "special" in turn. Her daddy loved her... what could be better than that?Few betrayals run as deep as the betrayal of being sexually abused throughout your childhood by the man you should have been able to trust with your life. For Kathy, the betrayal ran deeper because when she finally found the courage to start speaking out about what her abuser did to her, her family responded by labeling her a liar and a troublemaker.Kathy didn't stop speaking out though. In fact, she spoke out more, eventually becoming a powerful voice in the nine year campaign to get both the criminal and civil statute of limitations extended for child sex abuse crimes changed in Massachusetts. On June 26, 2014, the day the civil bill was signed into law, Kathy was finally able to file suit against her abuser.Abusers get away with their crimes because the thought of confronting them-even through legitimate legal channels-can be a terrifying prospect for a victim. Yes, Kathy's story as a victim is filled with years of sexual abuse and threats, but there are many more years filled with personal and professional triumphs as her life progressed beyond the physical and emotional reach of her abuser. Kathy is inspirational proof that good people can win, and that speaking out and fighting for what you truly believe in can help make this world a better place to live.
The silent chorus. Just imagine you thought that you had met the man or woman of your dreams. This person was charming and you thought they were the one or perhaps that this was fate; it was just meant to be. But as the months go by things start to change. Their behaviour towards you isn't the same, they are more critical, more particular about your appearance, what you do, how you do it, who you see. Time goes by and you feel isolated from your friends and family because that behaviour has now changed to threats, maybe violence and you feel that your identity is allbut gone. But still you stay. Where would you go? Who would help you? You are not worthy. But you are. A group of survivors have spoken about their own experiences. In their own words they show that survivors do have a voice and that it needs to be heard. They show that abuse isn't unique or strange but that it is, unfortunately, a surprisingly common problem in today's society. The message of this book is one of courage, as with courage comes awareness and an ability to understand what has happened to you and take the steps needed to become a survivor yourself.
A Century of Secrets is a multi-generational story of how one family's struggle with abuse, personal identity and deep-seated family lies and secrets has caused suicide, alcoholism and lasting family scars.This book is one woman's journey to uncover the lies, overcome adversity, heal her soul and create awareness for childhood neglect and abuse; sibling abuse, and how children experience and internalize trauma.We have the choice in life, to live to our highest potential or give away our power. In giving up our power we stop living a 'life' and we begin to just 'exist or survive.' As you read, you will see a pattern develop and the horror of the human condition deteriorate and intensify as each generation of this family fights with their own existence, battles to find some amount of normalcy, while spending the rest of their lives living in their own personal hell. Each generation of this family lived under the shadow of lies and secrets creating a destructive and horrific pattern, until one woman decided to break the cycle and expose the lies and secrets. Times and situations may change, and for women, we have faced many challenges since this story began in 1911 Europe, but the power of the human spirit cannot be broken even though the trauma remains the same."Trust me: It does not need to be this way! I now choose to be different." Teresa Syms

Have you been ghosted? You are not alone. One of the most common and most insidious forms of bullying is the practice of shunning. By common agreement, a group of friends or colleagues elects to single out one person and pretend he or she no longer exists. The human race is a social group, and the tendencies toward tribalism are natural. But the results have an enormous psychological impact on the scorned individual. Shunning can lead to depression, impaired work performance, even suicide. There isn't a lot of information available about shunning even though it has been around for centuries, and is noted in literary works such as, "The Scarlet Letter." It is mentioned in the Bible, and in fact is still a common practice among some religious groups. These days, stoning is out, but shunning is in. Modern society encourages the individual to turn away from people who are negative or toxic, but the practice of shunning can be group-related and takes the theory beyond what is healthy for anyone involved. Shunning is used in work environments; gatherings at the proverbial water cooler scattering when the victim approaches. We all have had the painful romantic breakup, where shunning is the horrible aftermath. But possibly the most painful instances of ostracizing occur within families, which can completely change the life and reality of an individual. How do you survive the Shun? How do you avoid getting swept up in powerful peer pressure that encourages this type of abuse? Peppered with biting wit and overflowing with compassion, this book contains step-by-step instructions that can help lead victims, and perpetrators, on a path to healthier relationships.
