You're very fortunate that you were able to find your husband. He's so kind, and another thing too, my first husband I found out years later after I divorced him and all that at age of 11, he was sexually abused. But that doesn't give anyone the right, honey, to abuse other people, okay? It just simply doesn't.
Jessica Moss, a new member of the NAASCA family, steps into the spotlight in this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now'. Sharing her harrowing story for the first time, Jessica recounts the years of sexual abuse she endured at the hands of her older brother from the age of 8 to 12. Her narrative isn't just about the pain and trauma but also about the journey towards remembering and healing.
Jessica's courage in recounting these events aims to shed light on the often-overlooked issue of familial abuse, where perpetrators are family members like parents, siblings, and extended relatives. This episode doesn't shy away from the hard truths. It dives deep into the psychological scars left by such abuse and the long road to recovery. Jessica also touches on a traumatic event that led to severe dehydration and near-death experiences, adding another layer to her story.
Moving states and growing older brought no immediate relief, as her brother attempted to continue the abuse even when she was 17. Now at 32, Jessica reflects on how these experiences have shaped her life and relationships. The hosts and guests provide a compassionate space for Jessica's story, offering insights and support that underscore the importance of breaking the silence around child abuse. They discuss the complexities of family dynamics, societal taboos, and the critical need for awareness and empathy.
This episode is a heartfelt call to action for listeners to understand, support, and advocate for survivors. It's a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength required to overcome such dark chapters in one's life.
