As hard as it is, as difficult as it is, as scary as it is, the impact that it has- and it may not be seen initially- the impact that it has is enormous and you're giving others permission to come forward, or an organization. It's an opening of a door and you planted the seed- very significant in a very significant way.
Have you ever wondered how family secrets can shape the lives of those who uncover them? In this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', Keeper Catran-Whitney, a child abuse activist from Woodland Hills, California, opens up about his painful journey. He discovered that his stepfather had been sexually abusing his four sisters for years, a dark secret his mother knew all along.
This revelation came just as his family was on the brink of escaping poverty, thanks to a potential Motown Records contract. Keeper's story is not just about the abuse itself but also about the silence that followed. His oldest sister's words, 'It didn't happen to you boys. It only happened to us girls. You can't talk about it - EVER!', left Keeper and his brothers in a state of helplessness and guilt.
This episode sheds light on the often-overlooked trauma experienced by siblings of abuse victims, a topic rarely discussed in books or articles. Keeper's soon-to-be-released book, 'HELPLESSNESS: The Hidden Trauma Brothers Experience After We Learn Our Sisters Have Been Sexually Abused By Our Parent', is the first in a series that also includes 'Hopefulness' and 'Happiness'. Through his candid conversation, Keeper emphasizes the importance of breaking the silence and speaking out about such traumas.
He believes that sharing these stories can have a profound impact, opening doors for others to come forward and seek help. This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is possible even after the most devastating revelations. With therapy, support from loved ones, and a commitment to breaking the silence, survivors and their families can find a path to recovery.
Tune in to hear Keeper's courageous story and gain insights into the unique challenges faced by male survivors of child sexual abuse.
