“It had been seven years since I’d watch my parents banish Joe from our home, but my cheeks lit on fire whenever a newscaster uttered the words child abuse.”
Ricki Lake, Never Say Never: Finding A Life That Fits

“Most 7-year-olds in 1975 were busy cruising around town on their Big Wheels, watching Wonder Woman, minding their Pet Rocks and Wombles, doing the hustle to “Lady Marmalade”, cooking up treats in their Easy-Bake Ovens, begging to stay up late enough to watch Saturday Night Live. In most ways, I was the same as every other ordinary 7-year-old in 1975, except for the way in which I wasn’t ordinary at all.”
Ricki Lake, Never Say Never: Finding A Life That Fits

“I was humiliated by what had happened, ashamed of what I had been through. Nobody had explained to me that it hadn’t been my fault. Nobody had told me that sometimes confused people do terrible things to children and that it takes a long time to recover from such a trauma. Nobody told me how sorry they were.”
Ricki Lake, Never Say Never: Finding A Life That Fits
