Parenting the Young Sexually Abused Child |
|
|
A manual for parents to use when a child discloses sexual abuse. |
|
| This manual was developed for use
when a child discloses sexual abuse.
|
| This information applies to sexual
abuse in a family-like situation, which is called incest, & to sexual abuse
outside of the family, which is often referred to as extra-familial abuse.
|
| You will find that the working of
this manual occasionally refers to mothers, because mothers are usually the
primary caregivers for their children. It is not our intent to
exclude fathers, foster parents, or other caregivers. We wish to recognize
all caregivers of children as partners in the healing & recovery process.
|
| The purpose of this manual is to
empower you with information. You are encouraged to use some of it or all
of it, at your own pace & when you are emotionally ready. In our work
with sexually abused children & their families, we are continually inspired by
& reminded of the importance of your involvement in your child's recovery.
|
| This manual is not intended to take
the place of or replace professional helping services, but to assist & support
you in the day-to-day role only a caregiver can provide.
|
| Funds that made this manual possible were provided by a grant from the Dane County Commission on Sensitive Crimes. We want to thank members of the Commission on Sensitive Crimes for their support & faith in parents as partners in their child's healing process. |
