  • Are you a child abuse survivor?
  • Have you been the victim of:
  •         •  emotional child abuse
            •  physical child abuse
            •  child neglect

  • Have you been forced to "keep the secret"?
  • Have you been told that the abuse you suffered through "didn't happen' or "wasn't that bad"?

If you've answered 'yes' to any of the above questions, I'd love to hear from you!

Join the thousands of story writers who have given voice to their suffering; suffering that in many cases has helped them make the shift from Scars To Stars®

If you want to be among the people who have courageously shared their stories, the process is easy and offers notification options when someone comments on your published story.

NOTE:  The Feedback and Comments section that used to be on this page has now been moved to another page. Check out stories feedback for all feedback and comments published up to and including August 19, 2007.

Rules of Etiquette for publishing comments:

  1. Be respectful
    Many of the story writers have never before felt safe enough to disclose abuse. Keep this site a soft place for them to land. Report inappropriate comments

    NOTE: The ratings feature for comments has now been disabled.

  2. Be supportive
    Consider the story writer's feelings. Disclosing abuse, even in a forum such as this, where there is anonymity, can be an extremely harrowing experience. An abuse survivor who writes a child abuse story often does so with great angst and trepidation. Offer support and encouragement.

  3. Do not include personal information
    I cannot control who visits this site—some visitors may have perverse motives. Therefore, in order to keep my visitors safe, I do not permit the disclosure of any information that is of a personal nature, such as last names, email or street addresses or phone numbers.

  4. Do not include website or blog URLs
    Not all websites and blogs are appropriate to this site. Therefore, I do not accept website or blog URLs to be included in comments; they will be stripped from the post.

If you need some guidance, Do's and Don'ts provides additional story comment ideas.

AUTHORS AND PUBLISHERS:  I congratulate you and wish you great success if you have written and/or published a book about your child abuse experiences. However, I do not promote books on this site. Story contributions submitted for the purpose of promoting a book will not be accepted. I publish stories on this page in order for victims and survivors to have a voice. Please be respectful of that purpose.
