Talking all about Domestic Violence, Abuse, Bullying, Human Trafficking, and Violence is never easy. We all need a listening ear, and a friendly hug as we approach these delicate subjects. In the body of Christ it can be difficult to tackle down these subjects but we are here to support, encourage, and empower those in need.
This was an amazing episode as we talked not only about how I went through Domestic Violence but also how I became a survivor for others after 17 years and also my children. I haven't talked about my experience for years but I know how important it is for many survivors to hear your story.
Thank you NAASCA.org for your work for children and for domestic violence survivors.
Amazing show discussing Child abuse, what we know, and what we don't know? How are some ways to address child abuse and safety? We talked with Chrissy Sykes the creator of MY BODY IS MY
BODY and amazing free program that assists parents, teacher, and educators to help families understand and teach all about the child, sex and abuse to children in a safe and learning environment through song and dance. She has provided these teaching tools on YOUTUBE and free of charge GLOBALLY!
We also spoke to Lisa Council a well know writer, mother, and survivor who shared her experience but also her stories that were an impact on the conversation, not only for Domestic Violence but Bullying and Child abuse.
As we discussed yesterday and some statistics some of us may not know these and some of us need this information:

10.3 PER 1,000 CHILDREN IN US
IN OHIO ALONE IS - 13.2 PER 1,000

As of 31 March 2019, 49,570 children in England (41 per 10,000) were looked after by their local authority because of abuse or neglect. 44,025 contacts to the NSPCC’s helpline where there was
