*****FIVE STAR - POWERFUL DEBUT!

Kim Brooks, Best-selling author of "He's Fine...But is He SAVED?"

Every parent, future parent, and every teenager needs to read this, especially in today's society where sexual exploits are accepted, and parents are seemingly oblivious... This is one of those books you will never forget!

*****FIVE STAR-IDENTIFYING THE REAL CULPRIT-The RomerReview This book educates as well as gives an inspiring depiction of what can happen... All men should read this book, and in doing so I would hope and think that we would be better stewards of appropriate behavior patterns that would allow girls the reciprocal respect that we truly can be trusted without abuse. I had no problem rating it five out of five stars.

TEBML is a well written revelation of the occurrences and aftermath of an ignored evil. Mrs. Jones provides resources and surveys that are factual and informative, and delivers a spiritually inspiring, self-help guide... For anyone who has not been molested, it should, at a minimum, increase awareness of a child's behavior so the signs can be recognized and positive actions taken. For those who are victims of incest or sexual abuse, this should feel like a healing ointment. Full Review

I heard you on Touch 106.1 on Friday morning; must say I was very impressed with your honesty. I too am a victim of abuse. It started when I was 3; continued until I was 16. My neighbor's female cousin humped me showing me what she did with her boyfriend. Then my mother's room mate performed oral sex on me, enticing me with a walkman... I was very violent towards men. I played sexual games with my dolls. I had sex with my stuffed animals, sheets, pretty much anything to relieve the urge. I showed my cousin how to hump; actually touched another one of my cousins when she was asleep.
