The protection of your child in all forms of child sexual abuse starts with you. So you as a parent need to be willing to get over the difficult conversations, to get out of your own head. And when it comes to sibling sexual abuse, parents tend to worry that they're raising a predator. If they're even going to acknowledge this conversation, then they are thinking to themselves, well, if one of my children does this, then they're automatically a predator, a pedophile, or a pervert. And that is really far from the truth.
Have you ever faced a topic so difficult that it's almost never talked about? In this episode, Emma-Jane Taylor sits down with Nancy Morris, a survivor and expert in psychology, to shed light on the challenging subject of sibling sexual abuse (SSA). Nancy courageously shares her personal story and professional insights, aiming to break the taboo and foster open discussions.
The episode dives into the often-overlooked prevalence of SSA, its profound impact on survivors, and the crucial need for families to engage in honest conversations. Alongside Nancy, therapist Denny Corby and activist Chris Puck contribute their perspectives, emphasizing the importance of multi-agency approaches and the role of professionals in supporting survivors. This episode isn't just informative; it's a call to action for greater awareness and empathy.
If you're looking to understand more about SSA or seeking ways to support those affected, this conversation is a must-listen.
