Wendy’s Story – You won’t believe it, but it exists…
Language: English
Description
As Wendy tells in this story: “I was 14 when I told my mother what my father had been doing to me over the past 5 years. Luckily, she believed me, and my father was arrested by the police. Unfortunately, there was no evidence of the sexual abuse – it all had been too long ago so, my father only got a few nights in prison and a restraining order. Had I had been able to get help at the time, such as through a helpline or something online, or even if a teacher at school or an instructor at the ballet school had paid attention to my depression, I would probably have recovered more quickly, but at that time I was left alone, face to face with my guilt.”
