Help to combat CHILD ABUSE. Please comment on my book 'The Foster-child"

The scourge of child-abuse is rampant and it is going to need many millions of people to address the issue. Please support my cause by sending messages or requesting sections of my book to frankie.panaino@telkomsa.net.

This book relates the true-life history of a man who, as a young child, experienced sexual molestation and horrific violence. He had to devise artful ways of surviving his turbulent development into adulthood. In stark, factual detail, this book describes his precocious escapes, victories, failures and limited opportunities.
His personal history armed him with a wealth of knowledge about the emotions experienced by abused children. This is the expose, for he felt that this knowledge should survive him. Shared, the experiences will be a valuable tool for the many readers who have experienced or witnessed abuse or molestation.
The book appears 50 years after the fact and in it, the author details the fundamental issues around self-worth, social maladjustment, and the paradoxical feelings of guilt and complicity experienced by most child victims of violence, abuse and molestation. In his book, the author reveals the routes of escape to victims, and encourages them to make use of them. The inspiration for the book is the need to guide victims towards their escape.
Many children and mothers, who are victims of violence or abuse, simply accept their circumstances.
Bonded by loyalties and fear of disclosure, they endure too much. Moreover, many have lost their lives, either literally or figuratively. Channels of recourse are seldom available to them because of their fear and silence. They do not realise that they are not the guilty parties.
The perpetrators are guilty of wrongdoing, but they seldom care about the lasting effects on their victims.
The premature death of the author’s wife led to him having to raise his son alone. Having never remarried, he scrutinises the consequences of his voluntary reclusive existence.
This first-hand account of abuse, however thematically groundbreaking, is disturbing because of the unembellished, graphic and verifiable descriptions of abuse, which persists to this day.
The author has avoided Profanities because younger readers will benefit from the narrative.
