It's as if there is a veil of unconsciousness that prevents us from remembering or telling the truth about sexual abuse -- or acting to defend abused children when we know abuse is happening. In this video, I talk about the first time I ever lied about being abused. For many people, covering for abusers (so we don't get abandoned, attacked, fired or cancelled) becomes so habitual we are desensitized to it. We stay silent, and say only what you're supposed to say. This is one reason why the extent of sexual abuse in industries and institutions such as the Catholic Church is STILL emerging -- and why child sex trafficking has proliferated in recent years. Our culture struggles to face this, because it's painful and sometimes dangerous to speak up. It's as if we want to stay asleep: Is this why there is controversy about the film "Sound of Freedom, which seeks to reawaken us about horrors -- the scope and explosive growth -- of child trafficking? (Trafficking, btw, is a euphemism for enslavement for the purpose of pimping out children for sex with adults). What can explain the number of people attacking this film, and attempting to block you from seeing it? Why do people use this issue to vilify political enemies? We MUST make it our common purpose to fight sexual abuse and trafficking in all its forms. It's never easy to face terrible truths, but it begins with healing our own shame and trauma.

My first time being silenced, I was 8. I was beaten by my parents because they thought I was lying. When they left me alone I had a giant bruise on my face. The next day, going out the door for school, I was told to lie, that I fell off my bike, if anyone asked what happened. But I had no wounds on my hands or knees. Only my face and my heart.

Yeah my mom has a history of loosing control because she silences her own voice to the point it comes out in destructive ways. As a child I must have picked up on that quickly that she’d get out of control so I got into a habit of lying because no matter what I did I’d be verbally and physically abused. Lying was my way of stalling the inevitable so that I could be more prepared for those moments. I’ve lost count the amount of times I’ve locked myself in the bathroom because she can be so wicked and unpredictable.

And as one who did call out evil as a kid, when the kids did it at any rate, let me tell you, sometimes the adults who should look after you are entirely complicit, and will refuse to protect you when this happens. Like the teacher who responded to one of my attempted call-outs by saying that she'd tackle me too (because that's what the boys were doing, seven boys attempting to tackle me all at once). Like, what was I supposed to be? A master of kung-fu? At that age? Seriously. It can take even a teenager a while to figure out how to use fight techniques to stop people (especially if you have to figure out how to do it in a way that doesn't get you suspended for hitting people and you're the only one being attacked so there isn't even the impulse to stand up for someone else because they never attack that someone else as badly as they do you).

I am so thankful for your video Anna. For decades I have been beating myself about lying and covering up for my abuser. My sexual abuse began at 7, and continued all throughout my childhood. When I was 13, my mother marched in the house accusing me and I denied it. She said nothing to my abuser who was in the next room, but she stripped off my clothes and beat and punched me repeatedly until I was a crying huddled mess on the floor. -Why was I beaten and humiliated when my abuser was left alone??? Everyone in the house heard the commotion, yet no one questioned him, and I was left to pick up the pieces and continue on with a pretend life. Everyone in that house was pretending at my expense. Just like society is pretending about child sexual abuse at the expense of the victims.

growing up mormon I used to think the LDS church was better than Catholicism specifically because of things like this. Much more recently, actually after I found this channel, I learned that this is also systemic in mormonism, that the church had set up an abuse hotline run by their lawfirm and callers were coached not to tell the police. That information was enough to make up my mind to leave mormonism right then and there. since then efforts to change clergy mandatory reporting in utah were easily dismissed. to quote the politician "Adams says ending exception for child abuse reporting forces clergy to choose between faith, jail." It blows my mind that abusers are protected, but clergy that would report the abuse are the ones risking excommunication

Mormonism enables massive abuse within households with their emphasise on parents personal revelation for their family. An abuser tactic is called "the voice of god", where the abuser decides what reality is. Nothing you can say or do will change what they do. This was what living with my mother was like, because she thought her personal inclinations and triggers were god telling her how she needed to discipline her household. The damage this has caused me and my father, my siblings, and her grandchildren are immense, but she feels cleansed by a couple weeks of not taking the sacrament.

My mom faced it, I faced it, told her when I was a child not even fully aware of what was happening, noone said a word again. Maybe she thinks I forgot everything, maybe this what every adult wants to believe that miraculous the child will forget. But most don't, everyone just lives with it like a disgusting secret that you secretly need to untangle. I'm so grateful you're discussing this today, people need to hear this.

A quarter million kids transported around this country to be worked to death and god knows what. Canada and what they did to all those indigenous kids. African American slavery.

Everyone was hoaxed and afraid that they couldn't see the (imaginary)clothes, but a child said 'he's not wearing anything at all!'. We have to come together to reveal the truth and stop contributing to the lie. It's as if child abuse is so horrible, it's easier for people to believe it's not happening, or that a religious leader should be above all sin, we don't want to even entertain the possibility that they're the worst of all.

A kid will protect their caregiver, just instinctively, automatically. They fear to lose them,this is why they lie about abuse. There is nothing else a kid could do. ❤

Don’t think don’t feel don’t tell! Children learn the lessons well. My mother was a heroine addict/speed freak. When I was 16 she pimped me out to her drug dealer. I had my daughter when I was barely 17. Years later I ran Alanon meetings in juvenile hall. The children always covered up for their parents. Disassociation and denial run deep.

It never gets easier to call out obvious wrongs, even as its happening. The gaslighting has been so thorough but when you have trained in the daily practice its almost impossible to not say anything. Recently someone in authority approached me very obviously off the rails emotionally, already emotional when they arrived. It was so hard to say how I felt and try to diffuse the situation at the same time but I stayed with it. I didn't go into mental chaos....I was steady and it didn't endure the next day. I still don't know how to follow up if I should or not. But, at least I know what happened and said something. I am learning to leave the crash-test dummy life and see if I can create a no-more-pain life. It feels like a magic carpet at times and I actually feel lightheaded when I divert from the usual Stockholm syndrome thinking. VERY BRAVE VIDEO THANK YOU FAIRY.

I kept my sexual abuse (I was only 3 or 4 y/o when there were several incidents at family gatherings by a male cousin who was probably about 15 ish- and again in 4th grade by a male teacher, then other incidents in my younger teen years by an uncle ) - I kept it all to myself and buried it for so many years! I do (barely) recall An attempt to tell my mom when I was 3 or 4 - but, at such a young age, didn't understand how to say it /not knowing fully what was right ( even though in my soul I felt that it was not right)! My mother seemed so disgusted and so I did not say anything about it again- probably fearing disapproval, losing her love for me or separation from her (?) I finally got a great therapist as an adult. I am learning how to love and nurture that little girl and I now understand why I have dealt with so much anger and self loathing over so many years. Still struggling at times, but im thankful for you Crappy Childhood Fairy! You speak the truth and you've helped many ! Your courage to stand up for the truth is admirable!! Keep your faith! ❤❤

There are so many creeps and freaks out there that prey on children. In those situations children do lie, it is almost a natural instinct when they have been abused in that manner especially if they have to face the abuser.

What you have said here with respect to this finally-released film is how I and many others who have shared similar opinions feel on the subject. Because the nature of our world today as we have known it is skewed beyond repair, so many distortions are being created and well meaning people struggle to see truth. Perhaps because they cannot feel the truth in their own their own heart and soul. The connection lost, dropped within a crazed society where people like you are bringing hope and healing. I cannot believe the lid this is blowing off my armor just to listen to your stories, relate with stories of my own and find new peace, love and self-respect through your powerful mentoring and that of your team!

I have been trained in domestic violence and abuse years ago. I'm 100% in agreement with you on ALL of it! I'm 100% in support of you and this video, and I've shared it on all of my social media platforms! THANK YOU for being brave enough to post this video. I've been on the receiving end of the backlash of being attacked and had my own grandchildren kept from me, tolerating wicked venom from my own daughter and her now ex-boyfriend, the father of my grandchildren because they were in denial, have unprocessed traumas of their own and are too arrogant to face their own issues, while being unwilling to accept the truth and gaslighting me because of that. I pray for them all --especially my granddaughters, but damage has already been done to them. The psychological damage they've endured is UNACCEPTABLE in my heart and mind, even if it's because their parents cannot face the truth of their own issues. No sexual abuse in my situation with my granddaughters. But there's abuse and emotional neglect that happened in my situation with their Father--TO the point of me having to call CPS, who did nothing btw--TWICE IT WAS FOUND UNFOUNDED! But as a survivor of all types of abuse and childhood traumas, I know the games the devil plays. My granddaughters' father assaulted me when I tried to intervene and stop his madness, this being AFTER my own daughter had gotten a refrain from order against me and I even was awarded small amounts of visitation of them, which NEITHER my daughter nor her girls' father honored. I had him arrested and have still been continuously verbally attacked up to this day, my daughter accusing me of throwing myself off of her front porch the day I went to intervene for my granddaughters, instead of facing the fact that I was handled so I couldn't get free, and pushed off their porch by him! She's calling me narcissistic and sick and telling me there are consequences to my actions simply because she's willfully blind to the truth and my poor granddaughters, ages 7 & 5 are suffering because of this, as well as others In my family because my daughter cannot and will not face it! I know the battles we all face with these things. I WILL NEVER STOP FIGHTING FOR THEM, BOTH BY PRAYER AND IN THE NATURAL REALM WITH MY EXPERIENCE UNTIL JUSTICE IS SERVED! But I also know that NO ONE in this, nor any situation like it comes out of it unscathed. I know my granddaughters' father was a victim himself to vile physical and emotional abuse from his alcoholic, mean father. So, I pray for BOTH my daughter & him AND forgive them for what he's done. But I can't and WON'T forget.

Thank you so much for another important video, Anna. I was assaulted several times as a child and even into my young adulthood, and it was minimized by my narcissistic parents (my mother minimized the sexual abuse she herself had suffered as a child), apathetic school administrators, and so-called friends who were used to normalizing abuse. It has taken decades and a lot of therapy to clear up any confusion in my head about the fact that this was abuse, that I was not to blame for it, and that there has always been a conspiracy of silence around this issue. My heart hurts when I think of the victims of the clergy and anyone who is trafficked. I live in California, like you, and I am shocked at how cavalierly the issue of trafficking is being treated by what I felt was a pretty progressive legislature. But I continue to heal and will ALWAYS speak up about issues like this.

Amazing video! I want to give an example of another side of the abuse issue... I know a man who was accused of sexually abusing a child. He is completely innocent (& no, I'm NOT being an enabler). Essentially, there is a couple with one child (she is now 16, though the incident happened 5 years ago). The parents are alcoholics and often have violent fights that we can hear. Their daughter once accused her father of sexually abusing her to the school counselor, but when the mother found out, she told the school her daughter was lying and took her home. Later, the daughter accused THREE other boys in the neighborhood of touching her inappropriately. These allegations were dismissed once the parents of the boys got the other side of the story. Then, she accused my neighbor (father of one of the boys she accused) of touching her inappropriately. Finally, this one stuck. My neighbor and his wife ended up paying out thousands in legal fees to fight the allegations, but finally he was told that even if he was innocent, he'd likely be found guilty since our state has severe punishment for child abusers, so it would be better to agree to a plea deal so at least he wouldn't go to prison. To this day, he's on the sex predator registry, can't go to pick up his daughters from school or do any school activities with them. In the meantime, the father (who we all suspect is the real abuser) has a perfect cover, and you know his daughter will never talk - and even if she does, the legal system won't seek for justice.

Anna, thank you so much for bringing attention to a horrible situation so many refuse to acknowledge and talk about. I was a child who lied to protect my parents... the abuse went on for over a decade, and I kept silence for another 15 years. In some ways that lie was the most traumatic part of the whole experience. I thought my experience was an isolated exception to normal society, but it is happening EVERYWHERE. Take a good look at the politicians you mentioned who refused to condemn child trafficking... a real hard look. What possible excuse would they have for doing that, save that for whatever reason, they were complicit?? 🤔 Upon what do they spend their money, and where do they derive it? What are they invested in? Who are their sponsors? Sponsors that might, say, pull the plug on them if they were to vote the "wrong way?" Follow the money! These sick people are EVERYWHERE, especially around places where children frequent. I guarantee every single person who reads this message personally knows at LEAST one pedoph!le, and they're much closer to them than they think. It is up to ALL of us to protect ALL children most diligently and hold these people accountable, no matter their class or standing in society! And parents, please don't take your kid's word for it... ALLOW NO OPPORTUNITY FOR IT TO HAPPEN. And make sure your kids know that you are a safe, calm, nonjudgmental, responsible place to bring such a delicate, complex, shameful, terrifying secret... and emphasize that you wouldn't respond by doing something that could possibly remove you from their life if they do. Sending all my love to all the hurting, healing, courageous individuals reading these comments; and prayers for happier, healthier, and ever more meaningful tomorrows... there is hope! God bless you all! ❤
