Synopsis

All adolescents experience tremendous change, both physically and emotionally. Concerns about sexuality, "fitting in", independence and self-image are paramount throughout these years. But for the teenage victim of sexual abuse, so-called "normal" problems of adolescence are exacerbated. These teenagers have trouble distinguishing between a typical concern and one that results from sexual abuse and the ensuing shame. In this book, written for the adolescents themselves, Barbara Bean and Shari Bennett validate the conflicting emotions aroused by sexual abuse and offer simple advice for reporting an incident and seeking counselling.
