I feel the same way! I just want to take that child into my arms and protect her from harm. I just wish my arms were big enough to hold all the children in the world that needs a hug. Maybe someday after therapy, I will volunteer for some organization that helps children in that position. Then there would be a silver lining to what happend to me as child.

I too, wish I could have reached out to someone to protect me, but if I did, who knows what would have really happened. There are alot of sickos out in this world. I don't think there would be an island to hold all of them.
