Honestly, that is more damaging to a psyche than the actual sexual abuse. When I'm talking to my husband or my very close friends, just the inner circle of people who do know this story, you know that's what I say is that sexual abuse and assault was, of course, traumatic, but the response was way more traumatic for me.
What happens when the people who are supposed to protect you become the source of your pain? In this compelling episode of 'Secret Life', host Brianne Davis talks with Taylor, who bravely recounts her experience of being molested by her stepbrother and not being believed by her parents. Taylor's story is a stark reminder of the prevalence of sexual abuse, with shocking statistics showing that 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 6 boys fall victim to such trauma.
