Why Would You? How Could You? I Was Only A Child...: Including the lived experience stories of ten brave survivors of Child Sexual Abuse.
Child Sexual Abuse is an epidemic buried in shame. Despite growing public awareness, systems still fail, offenders walk free, survivors remain silenced, and too many people look the other way.
This book is not polite. Within these pages, you’ll find hard truths, dismantled myths, and a sobering look at the true impact of CSA. At its core are raw, honest interviews with ten adult survivors whose stories reveal the lasting harm, the courage it takes to speak out, and why there is an urgent need for change in our governing systems.
Psychologist Sofina Lamsborne offers expert commentary to explain the psychology behind abuse, including what to look for, how grooming works, and what survivors need to heal. You’ll also find a frank conversation with outspoken Australian politician, Derryn Hinch, who’s spent decades pushing for tougher laws, even when it landed him in jail.
This is a call to arms. Because protecting our children cannot wait.
“This is the most comprehensive, detailed wrap-up on a painful issue. I could not more highly recommend it.” – Derryn Hinch
