I believe that, while it may not be possible to recreate
childhood, it is possible to rediscover childhood. As older
teens or adult prevailers over childhood sexual abuse or rape,
we may feel we were cheated out of our childhood. Our innocence
was torn apart as we were introduced to lewd, dishonorable,
irresponsible, corrupt, manipulative behavior by child abusers,
molesters, and rapists. This cannot be undone.. but, we can
re-introduce ourselves to the youthful innocence of play,
genuine honesty, and light heartedness. For some, it's easier to
do than for others.. but, in this forum, we're going to work on
being kids - because that's one of the most important parts of
growing up!
I will periodically be posting new, innovative methods of
rediscovering childhood - while, not allowing that to interfere
with the adult world in which we must function! I hope others
will join me in this experiment, exercise or whatever you wish
to call it! To participate, just visit the Prevailer Community:
