description: Child Abuse"The Effects on Children" A Mother's Story will give you an insight on my research for the past eighteen years. My research and trying to get help and justice started when I found out my oldest daughter had been sexually molested starting at the age of four through nine years of age by four of her male cousins. I found out when she was almost fourteen years old. Since that day I have called every number, cut out every article in our local newspapers that has anything to do with child abuse. I have learned a great deal about child sexual abuse and the long term effects it has on our children. A child never forgets, it is carried with them throughout their adult life. I wanted to write this book as I followed my oldest daughter's life, as she raised my grandchildren and coped with everyday life. I could see the big picture from the outside looking in. I saw what she thought of a Cindrella life turn into a nightmare little by little. She had found someone who used the abuse from her past as a way to control her. Someone who wouldn't know the truth about anything if it snuck up on him. He continuously used one lie to cover up another, through out the years. I hope this book and the next to follow will help another mother or grandmother out there.To let them know that they do not have to go through this nightmare alone. There is help out there. And to let everyone know that they should never think that this could never happen to their children or grandchildren. Child molesters do not advertize. We are suppose to teach our children to watch out for these sick people.
