Any adult who bullies a child is worse than the classmates who bully that child because they're an adult and they know better and they know how much it hurts that child.
Cherie White's story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Growing up in Covington, Tennessee, Cherie faced relentless bullying and abuse that pushed her to the brink. In this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', she opens up about her harrowing experiences and how they shaped her into the advocate she is today. Cherie's journey began in the sixth grade, where she endured physical beatings, name-calling, and gaslighting.
The relentless torment led her from being an honor roll student to struggling academically and emotionally. At just fourteen, Cherie felt so powerless that she attempted suicide. But her story doesn't end there. Instead of letting her abusers define her, Cherie found the strength to fight back. She now uses her experiences to help others facing similar battles, becoming an anti-bullying advocate and author of three books.
In this episode, Cherie discusses the crucial role of adult intervention in bullying, emphasizing that adults who bully children are far more culpable than their younger counterparts. She encourages listeners to speak up, report abuse, and seek support from organizations like the National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse. Cherie also shares her journey through the publishing world, offering advice for aspiring writers.
This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone dealing with bullying or abuse, providing practical insights and heartfelt encouragement.
